Sounds like one of these possibilities:
- in one case you have "smart quotes", i.e. directional quotes. Those
may not be supported by your pdflatex, or your viewer
- (unlikely) something in the display is a special sequence that ESS
in Emacs is reacting to badly. I think this is unlikely, because the
developer of str() uses ESS.
To change the type of quotes, set options(useFancyQuotes=FALSE) or one
of the other options listed in ?options.
