tramp (2.0.25); save breaks with [rs]sh

[Dan Debertin]

Enter your bug report in this message, including as much detail as you
possibly can about the problem, what you did to cause it and what the
local and remote machines are.

If you can give a simple set of instructions to make this bug happen
reliably, please include those.  Thank you for helping kill bugs in
TRAMP.

Another useful thing to do is to put (setq tramp-debug-buffer t) in
the ~/.emacs file and to repeat the bug.  Then, include the contents
of the *tramp/foo* buffer and the *debug tramp/foo* buffer in your bug
report.

--bug report follows this line--

Saving a buffer (one large enough to cause tramp to load tramp-uu.el)
using rsh or ssh results in the following error for me:

tramp: Encoding region using function...
Loading tramp-uu...
Invalid function: (macro . #[(place &optional x) 
("/usr/local/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/emacs-lisp/cl.elc" . 1750) nil 5 
("/usr/local/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/emacs-lisp/cl.elc" . 1536)])

The remote machine is running Solaris 2.5.1, on which my login shell is
(pd)ksh, though tramp seems to be invoking bash regardless. It works
fine with ftp.

More information available upon request. Thanks.
