[ESS] error when activating R-mode

[Rainer M Krug]

Hi

yesterday I discovered that I can't use R-mode anymore.

The git version is not working, 5.14 is.

The error message when opening an .R file is:

,----
| File mode specification error: (invalid-function
| with-silent-modifications)
`----

although the function exists

I tried it with starting with -Q and loading my ess config file (below)

Emacs version:

,----
| GNU Emacs 24.3.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin, NS apple-appkit-1038.36) of 2013-03-13 on bob.porkrind.org
`----

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Rainer
