I thought that would be easy but the summary() object of aov() seems to
be an odd beast. Fiddling around I came up with this:

data(warpbreaks)
LZ.aov <- summary(aov(breaks ~ wool + tension, data = warpbreaks))
LZ.aov.fp <- cbind(LZ.aov[[1]]$"F value", LZ.aov[[1]]$"Pr(>F)")
colnames(LZ.aov.fp) <- c("F", "p")

All we need now is to get the right row-names. I suppose that will
require a function that will extract the variable names from the
formula.
