This is more than likely some problem at your end.

The following example:

*----------------------------------------------
clear
set obs 5
gen x1=runiform()
gen x2=runiform()
outsheet using test, comma replace
*----------------------------------------------

yields the exact same result (wrt variable names), whether it is run
in Windows 7 or a Linux system (Fedora 17 in this case).
