So then I am to assume that the output of 'cat' can be truncated by passing it "bad" arrays.
I certainly wouldn't draw that conclusion. Without a reproducible
example, my assumption would be that it is unrelated to cat().

That is the only difference between the "reproducible" code you show and mine.
It is just a theory but say that the components array is not dimmensioned for 4 elements.
It seems a little strange if that is the case that a reference error is not thrown and
just the output of the cat call is affected.

You are probably being punished for posting non-reproducible code*.
When I try a reproducible version of the line above, things look fine:
> cat("myforecast ETS(", paste("A","N","N",FALSE, sep = ","), ") ", 3,
"\n")
myforecast ETS( A,N,N,FALSE ) 3

* R has a new predictive punishment module. It punishes you for things
it knows you will do later.
