[ESS-bugs] the new ESS is badly messed up

[Rodney Sparapani]

Not sure what is going on.  I don't use noweb since I want to
maintain my purity ;o)  I'm forwarding this report to ess-bugs...

You are right.  I ended up doing a "find" on all of /usr to find the 
culprit.  The file
          /usr/share/emacs23/site-lisp/ess/ess-site.elc
comes in first.

But if I do the following
       pull the newest version from the ESS site to 
/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/ess
       add the line (push "/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/ess/lisp" 
load-path) to my init.el

Now I get the new version in a bug report.  (By the way, a "version" tab 
would be useful).

However, the new ESS is badly messed up.
  1. I also use files with a .nw extension for C-code. They don't work 
anymore.  If I try
typing one and turn on c-mode inside a code chunk, the mode is lost 
every time I type a
new line.

  2. On an existing .Rnw file, inside of any code chunk it has sets 
itself to "Fundamental
Noweb" instead of S mode.  Inside a block I can reset it to c-mode or 
pascal-mode, but the
word "S-mode" returns me to fundamental.  All the nice color 
highlighting is gone, my
indentation rules are ignored,

What's happened?
