Hello, if You are interested to get similar functionality like r.profile does for raster, there's a GRASS add-on v.profile, that allows to profile vector point and line maps. Area support is not implemented.
Input for v.profile should be a map with a single transect line (or single line should be selected with SQL) or Northing, Easting value list representing line and a map with points/lines. Module output will be a list of feature (point within specified tolerance, line crossing) distance from the start of profile line + feature attribute data. If You need some help, let me know.
