ess-5.2.2 building rpms for fc2; one quirk

Hey, everybody
I'm packaging up ess-emacs rpms for 5.2.2 for Fedora Core 2 linux
systems (I know, about time) and ESS runs fine, but I notice one config
quirk and I want to understand it.
When Emacs starts, M-x R does work to start R its own window (I love
that).
The funny bit is that the R icon in the ESS menu bar thing across the
top is grayed out, and when you hover the mouse on it, it says "No other
R or Sqpe versions". However, the s-plus button, right next to it, is
not grayed-out, even though I don't have s-plus it will let me click on
that button and then return an error.
The R button did lite up in ESS-5.2.1 and i could launch R there.
So it must mean I missed a config switch?
My Emacs is the one FC2 delivers, 21.3.1, nothing fancied up.
