I'm told that r.out.gdal complains if GDAL is compiled without GRASS support.

It should be enough to first build GDAL without GRASS support, then build GRASS
with GDAL support, then rebuild and install GDAL *with* GRASS support by
pointing the configure script at your installed GRASS binaries directory.  The 
shared library should then be OK, and r.out.gdal should work without 
recompiling GRASS.
