Description
Currently, kml2gmt just convert the data format, but should instead build a dataset structure, and if -Fp is active then determine if any of the polygons are holes or the others and set the -Ph multisegment flag.

The solution has instead been implemented in gmtspatial whose -Sh option will reorganize a set of polygon, detect which ones are holes, and set the appropriate multisegment flag. So users of kml2gmt digitizing polygons should run their results through gmtspatial.

With that information now in the kml2gmt documentation I am closing this issue.
