No, I think this is an ESS  issue.  Forget about org-mode for now, try
the following. 

Create an empty foo.R buffer then type

x <- rnorm(100) C-x C-s

and you will see that a trailing-newline is added when you save.  This
extra trailing newline is added because require-final-newline is t for R
buffers.  This isn't new behaviour.

Try setting require-final-newline to nil (e.g. via a hook).

Thanks for that tip.
