[ESS-bugs] ess-mode 5.15; elisp compilation warnings

compiling ess results in many warnings like this:

Warning: (lambda (...) ...) quoted with ' rather than with #'

In fact, modern lisps (including emacs lisp and common lisp) define
lambda as a macro and thus quoting lambdas is considered bad style.

May I suggest that you remove the quoting?

(There are other warnings worth looking at too).
