I've been studying ghostscript and am now able to use the eps file from GL2PS 
to produce Matlab compatible PS and PDF output in portrait. I hope to manage 
landscape as well.

I like this solution, but let me know what you're thoughts are.

For the SVG/PGF/TEX output, I think GL2PS is the best option.
