[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hm, now I cannot reproduce this anymore. But today I got this bug,
recompiled Emacs from Git and the bug was still there. Right now I
tested Emacs 28 in case I managed to switch them accidentally, but
no, also not there.

So, either I have mixed something up, or this depends on some
volatile state in TRAMP, e.g. its cache.

I guess you can close the bug.
