Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug <at> gnu.org mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

Start emacs -Q. On being user weg I use tramp to access on 
localhost  the file 
-rw-r--r--  1 laura laura        6 2009-07-05 09:31 test3.txt
in /tmp.


edit and save.  *Messages* has these lines:

Saving file /scp:laura <at> localhost:/tmp/test3.txt...
Wrote /scp:laura <at> localhost:/tmp/test3.txt
File error: Error while changing file's mode /scp:laura <at> localhost:/tmp/test3.txt

The file is updated under my ownership.

-rw-r--r--  1 weg   weg         27 2009-07-05 09:32 test3.txt

The backup file renamed properly: 
-rw-r--r--  1 laura laura        6 2009-07-05 09:31 test3.txt~

When  tramp access a remote system in an analogous situation there 
is no problem.  I have a copy of the  tramp debug buffer saved if needed.

If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
/usr/local/share/emacs/23.0.95/etc/DEBUG for instructions.
