You might get a better answer from R-sig-Geo, but you never specify
proj4string for your KUD shapefile, and you may be specifying an invalid
(or not supported by ESRI) CRS for your HOME shapefile.

It might be clearer if you populated the proj4string slot of your
SpatialPointsDataFrame spdf.x.  The shapefile you write via writeOCR()
shouldn't have a CRS because you never specify proj4string for spdf.x or
kud or ud.1.

For HOME, epsg:27573 appears to be proj=lcc Lambert in the vicinity of
Paris; I'm not sure what a mashup of that and +proj=utm does, but UTM Zone
11 isn't in the south of France.  There should be a simpler, clearer way to
specify what your CRS really is.  Then, spatialreference.org might be
useful to see if there is an ESRI equivalent.

I hope that this helps...
