Ping!

I'm experiencing this problem everyday at work.  Everyone who works
with remote files should be experiencing it too (and I think that is a
frequent practice among programmers).

I get abnormal results regardless of the coding system of the file.
So, here is an updated, description of the problem:

0. Start Emacs: emacs -Q.
1. Visit any _remote_ file: C-x C-f /user <at> host:/path-to-file.
2. Now, any attempt to visit any file (remote or local) gives abnormal
results(*).

(*):
a. The coding system flag is missing from the modeline.
b. If the file has DOS format, the eol-style flag is wrong (it
indicates UNIX style), and the buffer shows the ^M characters at the
end of each and every line.
