The trailing / is gone.

I don't think this is a bug as file-truename operates on file names, but
default-directory is a directory (so use directory-file-name first, and
file-name-as-directory afterwards).

And yet
(file-truename default-directory) => "c:/Devel/emacs/repo/trunk/"

How is that a contradiction?

It does not remove the trailing slash for a local directory.
Apparently, it does for remote host directories.

Your use is outside the domain of the function, so nothing is
guaranteed.

I tend to agree that this is not a bug. OTOH, it is easy to change Tramp
to behave like `file-truename' on local file names, so I've changed it.

Thanks. It's clearly the better behavior (since it preserves more info
from its argument).
