[ESS] knitr and ESS

[Vitalie Spinu]

I guess your problem is some local immutability between ESS, polymode ,emacs and
eieio.

I am developing on 25, and testing on 24.4 and occasionally on 24.3. Polymode on
24.3 has some issues but it's usable and just yesterday a user reported that
everything was working fine. There have been too many changes on eieio in the
past year or so that I am even considering removing 24.3 from the supported
list.

I am back on developing polymode, (slowly but surely) and I will eventually fix
all the issues. For now, if you can upgrade emacs to the most recent version you
can please do that.
