Sorry, forgot that attachments don't make it through.
Here's how to generate the example objects and reproduce the error:

library(IRanges)
keep_ranges <- IRangesList( IRanges( start=20, end=108), IRanges( start=41,
end=131), IRanges( start=21, end=105))
return_rles <- RleList( Rle(values=TRUE,lengths=151),
 Rle(values=TRUE,lengths=151),  Rle(values=TRUE,lengths=151))
return_rles[ keep_ranges ] <- TRUE

return_rles[ keep_ranges ] ## subsetting works
return_rles[ keep_ranges ] <- TRUE ## assignment doesn't work
Error in callNextMethod() :
  in processing 'callNextMethod', found a '...' in the matched call, but no
corresponding '...' argument
