I will, for sure. The question is rather whether to commit in the
emacs-24 branch, or in trunk. I prefer the emacs-24 branch, because the
changes are such simple. Glenn? Stefan?

Maybe there is a misunderstanding. The recursive load problem happens
consistently with the recipe given by Ian. This is fixed by the (require
'tramp) forms in the patch.

I was rather surprised to see that a "sudo id" sometimes refused to
run. But this is covered by my second patch, which handles the defense
mechanism of Tramp.
