Don't know. Several save-excursion calls are there for decades. They
didn't hurt until now (maybe some slight performance penalties).
I've removed some of them, where it looks appropriate. Pushed to the
feature/tramp-thread-safe branch. tramp-tests still pass successfully,
and the error as described in this bug didn't happen any more for me.
I've checked also the other tramp*.el files, but there isn't any
suspicious save-excursion use.
Gemini, could you pls crosscheck that it is fixed?
Thanks, and best regards, Michael.
