Do I understand correctly that fixing the bug introduced by e3a0f3d
requires only the change in tramp.el?  If so, the change for tramp.el
is OK for the emacs-25 branch.

Regarding the other bug and its fix in files.el, can you tell more
about the bug?  A change in files.el affects a very broad class of use
cases, so I'd like to know more before I make up my mind about it.

Thanks.
