With that Tramp version, I can reproduce a similar error (but another
error message). The Changelog claims it is solved in Tramp 2.2.4. Maybe
you give it a try, or you wait until the Tramp repository is merged into
Emacs' trunk. This is stalled these days, until Emacs 24.1 has been
released (or the trunk is reopened for fat merges like the one with Tramp).

Best regards, Michael.
