Strange. I could reproduce it here.

But Tramp handles this case. See tramp-ftp-file-name-handler in
tramp-ftp.el, where ange-ftp-name-format is redefined locally.
Looks like ange-ftp-ftp-name has been called outside Tramp, and
afterwards Tramp accesses the same file. There is an optimization in
ange-ftp-ftp-name, reusing ange-ftp-ftp-name-arg and
ange-ftp-ftp-name-res if possible.
Don't know how this could happen ...
Nevertheless, I did commit a patch to Tramp CVS unsetting
ange-ftp-ftp-name-arg and ange-ftp-ftp-name-res before giving control
to ange-ftp. This seems to solve the problem.

This would be another solution. But Tramp is intended to work with
older Emacsen (older ange-ftp), too. So I would prefer to solve it
inside Tramp.
Please check, whether the fix in CVS, together with the original
ange-ftp, solves the problem.
