I'd really like to see some strategy from the experts on fighting this guy. I had a pretty beefy character killed by him when he cursed my character's cloak of protection (among other things) and used magic-missiles and PSI Bolts to kill him. Do I need magic resistance before taking him on?

First, it's a demon so silver saber (lawfuls may get Grayswandir somewhat easily) does very nice damage to it. Magic resistance is nice, but it respects Elbereth, so wand of fire is nice to have. It doesn't curse or do anything nasty when you are standing on the E square.

A good way I found was burn E on <. Put on my ring of teleport control, sneak up to his room, kick the door so he wakes up, teleport back to the < using a scroll or a wand (don't remember which one). Then, it's very easy fighting him from there. Oh, and I was using a mattock.
