You gien us nothing to reproduce this with, and other examples work.
R does have debugging tools that would allow you to investigate this.
In particular, as rownames<- is not actually used in write.table,
the result of traceback() is the minimum that is needed when reporting an
error.
Just one possbility: it should be `row.names=FALSE', and if you had a
variable called F this might be the explanation.
