Also, it isn't clear if you see the same problem in ArcGIS, QGIS, and GRASS, or just GRASS. How are you calculating the 2D area? Do you note in r.surf.area under DESCRIPTION that it says " Therefore, area of a flat surface will be reported as (rows + cols -1) * (area of cell) less than area of flat region due to a half row and half column missing around the perimeter." and does this explain what you're seeing? -k.
