I guess you mean -Q. Anyway, same result here.

Even stranger, if I preload tramp by "emacs -Q -l tramp", I get random
results:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
~/src/emacs $ sudo id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root)
~/src/emacs $ sudo id
Wrong type argument: processp, nil
~/src/emacs $ sudo id

Wrong type argument: processp, nil
~/src/emacs $ sudo id

~/src/emacs $ 
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I'll check tomorrow.
