This commit http://orgmode.org/cgit.cgi/org-mode.git/commit /?id=bde2348c9ecc87972d21a46a91d73ad3916650b8 broke all my :session *R* headers. But :session "*R*" works. C-h f org-babel-read should mention *XYZ* is treated as lisp. Maybe (org-babel-read "\"*R*\"") works for you. Or I suppose you could hack this with (setq *R* "*R*") HTH,
