bug#11947: 24.1.50; tramp bug - grep from helm have an empty buffer when used on a remote machine.

[Thierry Volpiatto]

Hi,
when I use helm-*-grep from helm-find-files, I lose the output of the
command immidiately after it came in its buffer.

If I load the tramp files from emacs-24.1 all work fine again.
So it is not reproducible from emacs-24.1.

To reproduce:

1) get the helm files here: https://github.com/emacs-helm/helm
2) install helm (See README)
3) run helm-find-files and navigate to a remote machine with scpc or ssh
   method.
4) Launch grep on a file (from menu action <TAB> or hit <M-G-S>)
5) enter something in prompt.
   You should see the output for 0.1 =~ second and then lost it.

Now disconnect from this tramp session, load the tramp 24.1 files.
The same operation should now works fine.
