 > I go to the source buffer in emacs and set a breakpoint using C-x <SPC>
 > in the gud buffer I see that the breakpoint has been set correctly.
 > But then when I try stepping through the code using "next", 
 > a new empty buffer is created whose file path (according to the buffer list)

 > i.e. instead of "me@remote:/home/me/file.c" it is "/home/me/file.c"
 > Any further stepping through the code in the gud buffer brings up the new empty

This looks like Joe Bloggs (bogus e-mail address) earlier report.  It doesn't
work with Emacs 21.4 and it is necessary to upgrade to 22.2 and ensure that
Emacs picks up the version of Tramp that comes with that version of Emacs.

Can someone please close this bug and/or tell me if/how I can close it?
