I think this works now, thanks. (Note that I just eval'ed the new 
version of 'tramp-sh-handle-expand-file-name' on MS-Windows to test 
things out, since I don't have a build environment set up on my 
MS-Windows system.)

So with the patch you merged to Tramp, plus your other one for 
"lisp/files.el", I think this is all working consistently now.
