Are you using global-auto-revert-mode? I get all kinds of problems using Tramp with global-auto-revert-mode enabled: bizarre error messages, hangs, crashes. For the crashes, see thread "Tramp with global-auto-revert-mode." My backtrace looks very similar to yours. The crash is also during garbage collection. I ever never been able to reproduce any of them with global-auto-revert-mode disabled. But maybe I did not try for long enough. I have a very slow connection. Sincerely, Luc.
