I've changed tramp-handle-start-file-process not to set the modified
flag of the buffer. However, with the current Tramp in the emacs-23
branch other mysterious effects happen when enabling flymake-mode, which
are not reproducible with Emacs 23.1. I will continue to investigate.

Just to let you know ...
