This sounds just like my setup.  I get the following from `org-version'
which should be equivalent.

Org-mode version 7.8.03 (release_7.8.03.419.gdeb6e)

I just did the same using the following command line to launch Emacs,
and I still get no decimal place in my results.

$ emacs -Q -eval '(setq laod-path (cons "~/.emacs.d/src/org/lisp/" load-path))' -eval "(require 'ob-R)" /tmp/dan.org

I doubt this is the case.  I also use Arch (just ran pacman -Syu this
morning) so we likely have the largely same underlying versions of
libraries installed.  Maybe the issue could lay somewhere in your R
config?

Sorry I can't be of more help.
