tramp (2.0.44); emerge-files fails with remote ssh file

[Sebastien Kirche]

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--

Well, second attempt, it seems that first one failed :(

I try  emerge-files with my local .emacs  (for example) and a  remote one at
home behind my gateway.
Connection is done through multi-hops:
- ssh with key authentication to reach the gateway/firewall (falbala)
- ssh with password authentication to reach my host (obelix)

I use the following path to remote file : 
/multi:ssh:address@hidden:ssh:address@hidden:~/.emacs

emerge-file fails with the following :
,----
| diff: /tmp/tramp.3617GRY: Aucun fichier ou répertoire de ce type
| diff: /Users/seki/.emacs: Aucun fichier ou répertoire de ce type
`----
Error is french for 'no such file or directory'
Both remote and local files are already loaded in the 2 windows.

I had also once another fail with the following
,----
| \ No newline at end of file
| \ No newline at end of file
`----
The files used to have a final newline, but i have added one and it seems to
be fixed (?)

I have joined the tramp log as attachment.
That bug report  is now sent with  Gnus, but my first attempt  used the mail
mode and it might have fail due to bad configuration ?
