Odd.

It is:

304         info->range[0] = GDALGetRasterMinimum(hBand, &bGotMin);
305         info->range[1] = GDALGetRasterMaximum(hBand, &bGotMax);
306         if(!(bGotMin && bGotMax))
307             GDALComputeRasterMinMax(hBand, !exact_range, info->range);

460             struct FPRange fprange;
461             fprange.min = info->range[0];
462             fprange.max = info->range[1];
463             G_write_fp_range(output, &fprange);
464             write_fp_format(output, info);
465             write_fp_quant(output);

The fact that the f_quant and f_format files are being written implies
that G_write_fp_range() is being called, but is writing an empty file.

Hmm; the -r flag won't help if GDAL is reporting a stored range. But
r.support.stats should fix that.

Is it possible that something is causing GDAL to "see" NaNs?

Maybe the presence of NaNs interferes with the range calculation. As
all inequalities return false for NaN, code such as:

        #define MIN(a,b) ((a) < (b) ? (a) : (b))
        #define MAX(a,b) ((a) > (b) ? (a) : (b))

        for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
            min = MIN(min, x[i]);
            max = MAX(max, x[i]);
        }

will set both min and max to NaN if even a single x[i] is NaN.
