Notice that in all cases, the F-value is exactly the square of the
t-value from Csimtest. The main difference is that you have claimed
that the vcov matrix has 59 DF, whereas the lme analysis says 12. I'd
suspect the latter to be (more) correct. Apart from that, notice that
the "L" approach at best gives you the "p raw" value, i.e., it is
uncorrected for multiple testing.
