Hi Rainer and Andreas,

This could be achieved by modifying the call to orgtbl-to-csv in
org-babel-R-assign-elisp:
diff --git i/lisp/ob-R.el w/lisp/ob-R.el
index 6f76aa5..ec3f110 100644
--- i/lisp/ob-R.el
+++ w/lisp/ob-R.el
@@ -239,7 +239,10 @@ This function is called by `org-babel-execute-src-block'."
(min (if lengths (apply 'min lengths) 0)))
;; Ensure VALUE has an orgtbl structure (depth of at least 2).
(unless (listp (car value)) (setq value (list value)))
- (let ((file (orgtbl-to-tsv value '(:fmt org-babel-R-quote-tsv-field)))
+ (let ((file (replace-regexp-in-string
+ "\t" "\\t"
+ (orgtbl-to-tsv value '(:raw t :fmt org-babel-R-quote-tsv-field))
+ nil t))
(header (if (or (eq (nth 1 value) 'hline) colnames-p)
"TRUE" "FALSE"))
(row-names (if rownames-p "1" "NULL")))
(This is just a quick hack; if it works then the code should actually
use orgtbl-to-generic to do the conversion in a single step.)

This was the approach that Michael took in his original patch. It
introduces new bugs related to the handling of quotes, though – see the
“Details” section of ?scan in R for the gory details (beginning with “If
‘sep’ is the default”...).
Andreas raised a bug a while ago that indicates to me that this code
should switch to csv rather than a whitespace-delimited format. But
there are lots of corner cases, and I have not had time to work on a
patch that I am confident could cover them all.
Andreas’s original report (also referenced earlier in this thread):
