Comment (by neteler):

 I have tried in 6.4.svn:

 {{{
 GRASS 6.4.6svn (nc_spm_08):~ > r.out.gdal input=geology_30m format=VRT
 type=UInt16 output=name.vrt
 Exporting to GDAL data type: UInt16
 Checking GDAL data type and nodata value
  100%
 Exporting to GDAL raster
 ERROR 1: Writing through VRTSourcedRasterBand is not supported.
 WARNING: Unable to write GDAL raster file
 WARNING: Unable to export raster map <geology_30m>
 r.out.gdal complete.
 }}}

 Indeed, the VRT file is generated but without reference to the
 "geology_30m" map.

 Same thing in GRASS GIS 7.0.3svn. I suppose that it is simply not
 supported.
