In fact recentf-save-list fails in `write-file' when it creates a new .recentf 
file.
Here is a backtrace:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument stringp nil)
  file-name-nondirectory(nil)
  set-visited-file-name("/home/user/.recentf" t)
  write-file("/home/user/.recentf")
  ...

I think it is due to this bug:
