Kasper:

What you have shown us appears to be correct, but I think I may see the
problem.  How are you editing the files on the remote server,
ange-ftp/EFS/tramp?  I suggest that you give us a few more details as
well like which version of ESS and emacs that you are using.  I think
this situation has been handled in the latest CVS, but I'd like to
hear more details before recommending that.
