We're talking about programmatically constructing a stroke within a
vectors object, that has its end node placed on the start node and then
is supposed to be closed. right?
I started a new gimp instance and issued the following commands in the
script fu console:

(1 #(1))

(3)

This is constructing a path with two bezier segments, where the end of
the last segment coincides with the start of the first segment.
As you can see gimp-vectors-stroke-close reduced the number of points:
Gimp has determined, that the first and the last control point are on
top each other and that their respective control handles do not hold
relevant information (since their coordinates are identical with the
anchor handle).
So the final result after the stroke-close contains exactly six handles
(i.e. the coordinate array contains 12 elements). Which IMHO is the
desired result.
I hope this helps,
Simon
