Hi,

I'm using ESS on Emacs 23 in Ubuntu, and I recently added the "bit" package
to my R system:

http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/bit/index.html

`bit' includes a function called `xor', which masks the `xor' function in
base.  I can uniquely identify these objects with `base::xor()' and
`bit::xor()', but when I type C-c C-v for help, a Tcl/Tk menu pops up and
prompts for clarification.  Moreover once I select one of the options
(either `base::xor' or `bit::xor'), opening help for `xor' henceforth
defaults to my original selection.

Is there a way to uniquely specify the object I'm looking for when I use C-c
C-v?  Specifying `base::xor' doesn't work, and typing `help(xor, bit)' in
the R interpreter produces output in the interpreter window.
