Below I've tried to provide a more precise testcase.
with cvs emacs of 20041226 do:
emacs --no-init -nw /su:address@hidden:/tmp/tsta
type your root pwd
type 1234567890 and save the buffer
jump to a new buffer tstb type 1234567890 and save it
repeat this process about 4 times
you will get this question:
Buffer *tramp/su address@hidden undo info is 417914 bytes long; discard it?
(yes or no)
its not entirely consistent, but I tried several times and was able to
repeatedly evoke the problem. The size of the testbuffers doesnt seem
to matter much, I tried much larger buffers, and what matters is the
number of times you switch buffers and save them.
You probably dont need to be root of course either.
