This is fixed only in GRASS 7, here, v.buffer can preserve attributes in the output. Furthermore, v.buffer in GRASS 6 is not working well, there are a number of known bugs.
Alternatively, you can delete categories with v.category option=del cat=-1 followed by v.category option=add cat=1 Each polygon will then have its own unique category.
