Why does it complain about this file, where you told it to auto-save
locally in ~/.tramp-autosave?  Strange.

What's the autosave filename for the buffer?  (I think evaling
(make-auto-save-file-name) should tell you.)

I think that there is a problem with the current Tramp autosaving
mechanism, as there is now a built-in method in Emacs 21, via
auto-save-file-name-transforms.  Tramp should use this mechanism.
Any takers?
