I've applied the patch to lisp/net/tramp-sh.el (since there
is no lisp/tramp-sh.el in this version of emacs).

'patch' also gives a diagnostic:

$ patch tramp-sh.el < ~/emacs.patch
patching file tramp-sh.el
patch unexpectedly ends in middle of line
Hunk #1 succeeded at 1292 with fuzz 1 (offset -3 lines).

But anyway. With this change, the "gmake check" run goes further along:
The debug log repeats itself starting around line 7783.
Find it attached (again, truncated to 10000 lines).
