Hi,

Please disregard my previous bug report.  I think it was a version
issue in debian.  I updated some packages (which is done automatically
through a mirror) and seem to have received something out of date.

I traced it down to:

file-name-handler-alist's value is 
(("\\.Z\\(~\\|\\.~[0-9]+~\\)?\\'\\|\\.bz2\\'\\|\\.tgz\\'\\|\\.g?z\\(~\\|\\.~[0-9]+~\\)?\\'"
 . jka-compr-handler)
 ("^/[^/]*$" . tramp-completion-file-name-handler)
 ("\\`/[^/:]+:" . tramp-file-name-handler)
 ("\\`/:" . file-name-non-special))

The regexp for the tramp-file-name-handler variable was slightly
different.  Somehow in my /etc/emacs/site-start.d directory, the
50tramp.el was an older one, as another one in the same directory
called 50tramp_debpkg.el (or something like that--obviously something
from the debian packageing) was identical to the one that I get now
when I reinstall tramp.  I found this out by comparing the
/etc/emacs/site-start.d directory on a different machine that I loaded
tramp to today.  So things work now after purging and reinstalling
tramp.  There is no more 50tramp_debpkg.el file to be seen.

So I think I may have caught a debian mirror with an old update.

Thanks for the good work.

Ryan
