Thanks very much Kevin.  The setq did the trick.  I am not clear on why such 
a strange new default was chosen, but I'm sure others have discussed that.

Please note that I'm not using S-Plus.  ESS thinks I am, and hence the 
failure when I attempt to send lines to the R console even though the R 
console launched fine from within ESS.

If it matters, I have defined the following in my .emacs

; See http://blogisticreflections.wordpress.com/2009/10/01/r-object-
tooltips-in-ess
(setq ess-R-object-tooltip-alist
      '((numeric    . "summary")
        (factor     . "table")
        (integer    . "summary")
        (lm         . "summary")
        (other      . "str")))

; Allow for object-type-specific tooltips for R objects
(defun ess-R-object-tooltip ()
...
;; my default key map
(define-key ess-mode-map "\C-c\C-g" 'ess-R-object-tooltip)

(provide 'ess-R-object-tooltip)
