Thanks Rodney, Sysadmins did the installation, which is when I presume everything was byte-compiled. At any rate, setting ess-etc-directory did not result in ESS loading. I still get the message "Error: Cannot open load file: No such file or directory, ess.rd.el". Yet, ess.rd.el is present. Naively, it looks to me as if (add-to-list 'load-path "/apps/x86_64/emacs/ess-18.10.2/") is not being executed.
