Thanks for your report.  I think this has already been fixed 3 months
ago (revision 843879d in git).  `save-place-dired-hook' looks in the
emacs-24 branch like this:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun save-place-dired-hook ()
  "Position the point in a Dired buffer."
  (or save-place-loaded (load-save-place-alist-from-file))
  (let ((cell (assoc (and (derived-mode-p 'dired-mode)
			  dired-directory
			  (expand-file-name (if (consp dired-directory)
						(car dired-directory)
					      dired-directory)))
		     save-place-alist)))
    (if cell
        (progn
          (or revert-buffer-in-progress-p
              (if (integerp (cdr cell))
		  (goto-char (cdr cell))
		(and (assq 'dired-filename (cdr cell))
		     (dired-goto-file (cdr (assq 'dired-filename (cdr cell)))))))
          ;; and make sure it will be saved again for later
          (setq save-place t)))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Evaluating the new defun should fix the problem for you, I think.


Regards,

Michael.
