I was meaning fundamentally those functions are present in the C source code if you want to have a peek under the bonnet: http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/browser/grass/trunk/lib/vector/Vlib/ If that's a bit dense you can check out what the Programmer's module: http://download.osgeo.org/grass/grass6_progman/ But typically you should be able to get at whatever functionality you need from the modules (command line / GUI interfaces). There isn't much you can't do with the modules, it may not be obvious which module contains the functionality, but if you keep searching+asking eventually a solution comes to light. If you must have access to a function not covered by a module or e.g. want to write a high performance custom model into a new module, you can get access to those C library functions using the SWIG Python interface without having to mess with knowing C.
