I forgot the other scenario. "The other host" could be your local host,
but with another user.
Suppose compile.el uses already start-remote-process and
process-file. Then you could apply
(let ((default-directory "/sudo::/etc"))
(grep-find (concat grep-find-command "xxx")))
searching as root on your local host.
Best regards, Michael.
