Yeah, the problem is not a change to ob-R.el but the recent change
to ob-core.el (see the message of the commit I referenced). But
the change to ob-core.el is final if I understand it correctly
which means that ob-R.el has to be updated. Sorry if I was unclear
in my description.

Named plain lists were previously turned into data.frames with
each first level item in one row. Second level items were in the
second column I believe. After the change to ob-core.el they are
still data.frames but first level items form columns instead of
rows. Second (or deeper) level items are dropped as they should be
after the change to ob-core.el (according to the commit message).
