Hello!

Visiting /var/log on a remote server with TRAMP and SSH protocol I  
want to copy a gzip'ed messages log file. I can view it remotely.  
When I copy from the remote dired buffer to a local one, TRAMP writes  
of:

	compressing tramp.29438xtJ.gz...done
	Wrote /tmp/tramp.29438xtJ.gz
	Wrote /var/tmp/vServer/messages-20080221.gz
	Copy: 1 of 1
	Copy: 1 file
	uncompressing messages-20080221.gz...

Remote and local size are equal. When I visit the local copy in  
dired, jka-compr produces a giant temporary file  
(#messages-20080221.gz#), in which the first 355 lines look OK while  
the following 166,000 are pure rubbish, and this error message in  
*jka-compr-error*:

	Error while executing "gzip -c -q -d < /var/tmp/vServer/ 
messages-20080221.gz"
	
	
	gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file

This also happens when I launch GNU Emacs with -Q ...
In any case y in dired mode says: 'gzip compressed data, was  
"messages-20080221", from Unix'

wir so wunderbare Dinge einfach gewusst haben konnten.
