For this problem it might be the right thing to do. But we shall
continue to investigate (Stefan?), because this problem could happen
elsewhere.

I've committed a respective patch to the emacs-24 branch.  Shall we put
a note somewhere, that tramp-sh.el of Emacs 24.3 needs to be recompiled
on MS Windows?

Best regards, Michael.
