That's not a "problem" but rather the design. You get what you are
asking for in inferior-R-program-name.

Unfortunately when ESS asks for the directory it displays "(newest)",
and that's a problem indeed as it creates confusion. I have changed that
into "(default)" for the lack of a better term.

Thanks,
