Why is this needed? Both variables are used let-bound only.

Best regards, Michael.

Because they rely on dynamic scoping.
I know that you haven't set `lexical-binding` in your files, so it's not
*needed*, but with those declarations tramp.el is compatible with
`lexical-binding` (to the best of my knowledge).

Thanks for explanation.

Tramp is still compatible with Emacs 23. Once this is given up, we might
move Tramp to lexical-binding.

Best regards, Michael.

You can set the lexical-binding:t cookie ans still use the code in
Emacs-23, as long as you make sure you stay to the common subset
(mostly: don't use closures).
