I have a script called grass2gmt.sh (which I actually attach) which
does this job. It is a lousy hack, but why not give it a try...
- usage is grass2gmt.sh MAPSET RASTERFILE
- I use it "stand alone" - not within GRASS. I wrote priliminary for
  use with GMT scripts.
- result is a GMT compatible netCDF file
- comments welcome

I wrote it long ago, so further shell programming skills can be
applied. Especially I would suggest to use r.out.bin, and use the
"-Z" option of xyz2grd... but it works for me...

... just my 2 cents ...
