That sounds like the module isn't compiled/available.  Does
grass5/bin/r.in.hdf exist?  This module isn't compiled by default (as it
isn't well supported).

HDF4 is reportedly not functional and I don't think anyone has stepped
up to work on it.  HDF3.2 is reportedly functional.  HDF5 has not seen
any code (though there has been some discussion).  Sorry, that's not a
very promising answer :(.
