You are working on "/u/gildea/xx.sh", which is a symlink to
"/home/vax7/u19/gildea/xx.sh". You have written "/u/gildea/xx.sh". Tramp
tries to check "/home/vax7/u19/gildea/xx.sh" file properties afterwards,
and it decides that this file doesn't exist.

This is likely because of Tramp's cache, which hasn't been refreshed
accordingly for the symlink's target after writing.

I will check how to fix this; unfortunately there is no simple patch. It
might take a day, or two.

Thanks for testing, and best regards, Michael.
