Probably you need to put the tabbing environment inside a minipage, 
something like:

	\begin{center}
	\begin{minipage}{10cm}
	\begin{tabbing}
	aa\=aa\kill
	a\>b\\
	\end{tabbing}
	\end{minipage}
	\end{center}

The ability to put a tabbing structure inside a minipage is mentioned 
briefly on p. 218 of LaTeX: A Document Preparation System.

The rationale, I think, is that a tabbing environment is not something 
that can be centred, it's taking the whole width of the page; hence the 
need to put it inside a minipage before centring it.
