Have you tried read.dta?
The URL on the help page for read.dta now says 'Stata 11 help for
dta', but it seems to document the same format (114) as Stata 10 (see
the value section). So in so far as Stata is telling us, it looks
like Stata 10 and 11 use the same format (as Stata 8 and 9 did).

I suspect it can write .csv files. See for example
