I still can hardly beleave that this is a problem of ESS /
Emacs.
You say it works fine in Rterm. 
Are you absolutely sure this runs the same version of R, the
same packages, etc etc

Type sessionInfo() in both and compare the outputs carefully.
I still have strong feeling that this is a problem of your R setup, and
not of ESS {but I can be wrong, of course!}.
