/ssh:address@hidden:/ is the Tramp syntax for Emacs. With XEmacs, that
syntax activates EFS. XEmacs expects /[ssh/address@hidden/ as Tramp
syntax.

Kai has prepared Tramp for using the same syntax on XEmacs; you need
(setq tramp-unified-filenames t) before loading Tramp. But it doesn't
seem to work correctly; I'm debugging it these days.

Oops. I'll put it on my todo list for analyzing, but I cannot promise
doing it soon (the list is too long).
