>From the NEWS file for 2.7.0:

     o   The default for 'stylepath' in Sweave's (default) RweaveLatex
         driver can be set by the environment variable
         SWEAVE_STYLEPATH_DEFAULT: see ?RweaveLatex.

You want to set 'stylepath' to be false, and the easiest way to do this is 
to set that environment variable.  In R 2.8.0 the default will be false.
