There were a few bugs in the current versions of format.df (called by latex), and the "scientific" problem could have been among them. Try to download latex.s from http://biostat.mc.vanderbilt.edu/svn/R/Hmisc/branches/release_3.2-1/R/latex.s do library(Hmisc) source("latex.s") and check if the problem disappears. If it does, write a mail to [charles.dupont at vanderbilt.edu] and ask him to make the version public as soon as possible.
