Chris,
For what it is worth, I made two more tests: - on my system 'M-x R' as well as the suggested-in-the-ESS-documentation 'M-x ess-version' both work whether or not I have my ~/.emacs -- so somehow system path must work - I have the .el files in the default directory: /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/elpa-src/ess-18.10 - They are also symlinked each into /usr/share/emacs25/site-lisp/elpa/ess-18.10/ which also contains the 'compiled' .elc files "Works here" and I currently have no suggestion as to what to fix on your end.
