Hmm... looks like a bug in the implementation of defsubst: it works by
replacing references to tramp-compat-tramp-syntax with a copy of the
function's byte-code (this is the #[0 ...] object above, which includes
the source file name info), and later on those copied bytecode objects
are normally spliced into the surrounding bytecode (at which point the
extra source info is dropped), but here it seems like it hasn't been
spliced as it should.

Here you can see that there is no nested bytecode object (i.e. no
#[...] with the main #[...]) so the call has been correctly inlined.

I don't think we've changed anything significant in the implementation
of defsubst so indeed it's likely triggered by something like the order
of compilation.
