I'm not a great importer/exporter of maps, but
a quick check of [r|s|v].[in|out].* reveals:

r.in.ascii r.in.ll r.in.poly r.in.sunrast r.in.utm r.out.ascii
r.out.tga v.in.arc v.in.dlg v.in.dxf v.in.tig.basic v.in.tig.rim
v.in.ascii v.in.dlg.scs v.in.poly v.in.tig.lndmk v.in.transects
v.out.arc v.out.ascii v.out.dlg v.out.dxf v.out.moss s.in.ascii
s.out.ascii

So, for input, it appears to support ascii, arc, dxf, tiger, 
dlg, and sunrast (with pbmplus -> any common image format).

For output, it appears to support ascii, targa, arc, dlg, dxf, 
and moss.

Disclaimer: I've never used very many of these.
