I've checked Tramp: it works already proper, thanks to Kai. At least for
the methods handled in tramp-sh.el. Next days, I'll check also
tramp-adb.el, tramp-gvfs.el, and tramp-smb.el.

I've added some additional tests to tramp-tests.el, in order to provoke
an error when a directory as target does not look like a directory name.

Best regards, Michael.
