Thanks for the reply.

I posted this because untill yesterday, with R 2.15.3 and the same ESS
version, this things didn't happen.

I'm aware that in the dev version anything can happen and these are
not really problems. (As I said, R 3.0.0 is working fine). Maybe it
was more suitable to  file a GitHub issue.

Best regards,
