I get the same error on Debian 2.1, Python 1.5.2
As best as I can tell, making an empty body and then appending to it is
something HTMLgen doesn't like. I looked at the documentation for
HTMLgen, and it seems the preferred method is to make your list first,
and then set it to table.body
I got the above to work with this change:

table = HTMLgen.Table()
bodybitz = []
for line in fila:
    bitz = string.split(line,' ')
    bodybitz.append(bitz)
table.body = bodybitz

It's just a workaround, but I hope it helps.
