I'm sorry that I don't have a reproducer at the moment. I was having
some failures during startup that would leave my Emacs unable to change
buffers with `M-x switch-to-buffer', which was remapped to
ido-switch-buffer, because it would attempt to make a Tramp connection
to some nonexistent host. I could get around this by `M-: (setq
default-directory "~")', so I went hunting in ido.el for mentions of
default-directory and found 2 instances of (setq default-directory...)
that were not apparently surrounded by a let. This seems like a likely
cause of the problem.

I believe this bug might have been fixed already. It might have
something to do with ido-may-cache-directory trying tramp hosts.
