The patch seems to be OK wrt your echoing shell. However, Tramp still
tries to apply "test -e", although it's not applicable. This is likely
because of cached connection properties (see "~/.emacs.d/tramp").
Could you, please, remove this file before you start Emacs? Or,
alternatively, before you're going remote, clear the cache by calling
"M-x tramp-cleanup-connection RET /ssh:bob@shell.berkshire.net: RET"?
Btw, next time you send a debug buffer _please_ append it to your
message as attachment with proper encoding. It contains non ASCII
characters, and email is not 8bit clean by design. I can read your
message via the emacs-devel archive, but there is a delay until a
message is offered there, and (because in HTML format) it doesn't keep
line formatting, which makes reading the debug messages hard.
Thanks, and best regards, Michael.
