auto save only fails with remote files.

When tramp-auto-save-directory is set to nil, the above evaluates to:
        the /usr/src/build.... pathname.

However, if tramp-auto-save-directory is set to a pathname, then the
above evaluates to what its supposed to evaluate to.

Hopefully, that should enable you to reproduce the problem.  I did a
search on google for the error message.  It happened to one other guy
who said the problem just kind of disappeared on its own.
