You haven't upgraded ESS.
The new features for ESS 5.3.2, see e.g., here
http://ess.r-project.org/Manual/readme.html#New-Features
exactly mention to have addressed this problem.
Current ESS is 5.3.3
Since every new release of ESS is announced on this list, and
the problem has been solved even in the second to last release,
I could say you should blame someone ;-) ;-)
