Matthew Swift <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
   THE PROBLEM: If you are browsing a remote directory with rcp.el,
   ange-ftp, and dired ("scp" method, but I think all methods are
   effected) and you press `C' to copy a remote file to the local
   machine, the minibuffer will claim that the copy is successfully made,
   but it will not be made.  (Yes, I know that better error-catching is
   already on the the todo list.)

Okay, well, you did it before I even found the time to have a look at it
:-)

This problem was not present in version 1.126.

I wonder if the following problem  is related with the one you describe:
I wasn't able to read a remote file.  The messages claimed that the file
was copied to the local /tmp directory, but it apparently wasn't.
   
   !        (default-directory (if (rcp-rcp-file-p default-directory)
   !                               (concat (or (getenv "TMPDIR")
   !                                           (getenv "TEMPDIR")
   !                                           "/tmp")
   !                                       "/")
   !                             default-directory)))

Just use temporary-file-directory.  Maybe, just  do that for any call to
call-process.
