Someone with a mac might try `make test/lisp/net/tramp-tests`
to verify the new tramp-test10-write-region (21afc26) works
as well as it does on linux.

I get this consistently in a macOS 11.6.8 cloud env I've no
control over:

Test tramp-test10-write-region condition:
    (ert-test-failed
     ((should
       (string-equal
	(buffer-string)
	""))
      :form
      (string-equal "-n \n" "")
      :value nil :explanation
      (arrays-of-different-length 4 0 "-n \n" "" first-mismatch-at 0)))
