I can't reproduce this. I did:

bzr checkout --lightweight bzr://bzr.savannah.nongnu.org/drupal-el/trunk

(A nice, tiny repository.)

Then disconnected from the net. emacs -Q drupal.el works fine.

I have no idea why Tramp would try to get involved. Perhaps it is
something specific to your configuration.

Irrespective of this issue, I would certainly recommend just forgetting
that lightweight checkouts exist; but YMMV of course.
