I too use a similar set up with Emacs from CVS (although
date 2006-01-13), so it could be an Emacs bug rather than ESS.
In the meantime, if the error occurs on start up, try:
emacs --debug-init
and send us the error file generated if there is one.
Otherwise, if the error comes later, try (from the manual):
If Emacs reports an error, backtraces can help us debug the problem.
Type "M-x set-variable RET debug-on-error RET t RET". Then run the
command that causes the error and you should see a *Backtrace* buffer
containing debug information; send us that buffer.
