Aloha all,Answering myself. This bug is known and was discussed several years ago:
From: Myles English Subject: Re: [O] babel R: should/does order of parameters matter? Date: Tue, 29 Mar 2011 16:57:37 +0100Apparently, ob-R wants tables to be passed to parameters that are early in the parameter list.
Also, ob-R expects all the cells in a table to be non-empty. An empty table cell raises Cain.
Argh. All the best, Tom
