It reports
ls does not support --dired; see `dired-use-ls-dired' for more details.
but produces somehow a good directory listing with file names like (where the
umlauts cannot be found, but that's another problem probably):

Maybe I am misinterpreting this message. I am concerned because I had prepared
for GNU Emacsen 23 and 24 customisation à la
'(dired-listing-switches "-ahlN")
which are only OK for gls. Previously I could simply
(setq dired-use-ls-dired "gls --dired")
now it's getting a bit confusing. Is gls found and used or is the ls emulation
doing the job? It would be an improvement when GNU Emacs would also report what
it will use to generate the dired buffers.
