As far as I can see the levels file should have

Male
Female
<newline>

as its contents.

Check if the <category> you have used in the qdec.table.dat file, is it
the with same name? E.g. if you have the field as SEX, then the
<category.levels> file should be called <SEX.levels>

Hth,
Shantanu

PS: could you CC freesurfer list as well?
