I guess v.generalize uses map units, i.e. degrees for latlong, but
guessing without checking every single smoothing and simplification
method. At least I can't remember having seen anything when I last
went over the code of v.generalize. Functionality handling latlong
should be implemented in the vector libs (there is already
Vect_line_geodesic_length() but that is not enough).
