tramp-test42-auto-load fails on Windows because remote directories are
not being tested, for lack of a suitable default. So
'tramp-test-temporary-file-directory' is set to "NUL", and
(file-remote-p "NUL") = nil.
In fact, the test used to have
(skip-unless (tramp--test-enabled))
until commit ad99550610542f8333dc964b3bef2b9e6ad7b0f6, where it was removed.
I've sort of "fixed" it by making the test expect a failure when
'tramp--test-enabled' returns nil, because I didn't want to second
guess that commit's author, Michael Albinus.
Yet I think reverting at least part of that change would be a better
fix, because now it is "expected to fail" on Windows, while the truth
is that the test is not failing; it should simply be skipped.

I will check what's up once I could find an MS Windows machine. This
will take some days; next week I'm not in office.
Best regards, Michael.

I've checked the history. Looks, like the removal of the skip was an
accident. In master, it is already reintroduced. So I've done in emacs-26.
Best regards, Michael.
