It looks like you are using some custom
tags-completion-at-point-function. I cannot reproduce an error on 

GNU Emacs 24.0.94.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.2.0)
 of 2012-03-05 on dubnium, modified by Debian

But the above behavior is not intended for sure, from 24.1
comint-dynamic-complete is obsolete and thus
comint-dynamic-complete-functions is not used. That means  no R
completion available in emacs 24.

Thanks Sam  for pointing this out. It look like we have to look into
emacs 24 completions earlier than expected. I will fix it asap.

Best, 
Vitalie.
