dump() is usually used when you want to recreate the object. Here,
you probably just want to print it, so something like
sink('error.txt')
traceback()
sink()
might do a better job. But if you really want the .Traceback list, I
think you just need to assign it to a new variable before dumping,
e.g.
saveTrace <- .Traceback
dump('saveTrace', 'whereever.R')
I imagine the problem you're having is from some special case code to
handle the .Traceback variable in a dump, but I haven't checked the
source to see.
