I cannot reproduce it, using "emacs -Q".

My guess is that the regexp it uses to recognize when a password is
expected doesn't match the French prompt used for the password.

This happen here with emacs -Q

Also it does the same of course if i try to open a "su bookmark".
Always with emacs -Q

To reproduce:
emacs -Q
C-x C-f /su::
When your prompt appear, do nothing, just wait, you will see after few
seconds tramp try to connect.

Don't know, notice that anything-find-files doesn't try to connect until
password is entered due to the tramp regexp modified...

Got it. You need also to enter <RET>, in order to reproduce.

The problem was the (too) eager progress reporter. Fixed now in the trunk.
