I have a case where Emacs have trouble understanding whether a remote
file is a file or a directory, I run this code where PATH-LOCAL is on
localhost and PATH-REMOTE is on a remote FTP via TRAMP

(let ((file-or-directory (not (file-directory-p path-remote))))
    (if file-or-directory
        (progn
          (message "Downloading file '%s' to '%s'.. (synchronously)" path-remote path-local)
          (copy-file path-remote path-local t t t t)
          (message "Download of file '%s' finished. (synchronously)" path-local))
      (progn
        (message "Downloading directory '%s' to '%s'.. (synchronously)" path-remote path-local)
        (copy-directory path-remote path-local t t t)
        (message "Download of directory '%s' finished. (synchronously)"
    path-local))))

The file .error-log will be transferred locally to .error-log/.error-log
instead of .error-log. The filename does not matter.

It seems (file-regular-p) mistakes remote files over TRAMP FTP more
often than (file-directory-p). Maybe that is the cause of this problem.
