i've installed Tramp 2.1.15 just to confirm the issue is still there;
anyway, M-x tramp-version returns 2.1.15 in both cases

done so, but there are no TRAMP buffers!
C-x C-b only shows
.   hosts                    0  Fundamental       /su::/etc/hosts
    *scratch*                0  Lisp Interaction
  * *Messages*             733  Fundamental


BTW shell output:
$ ls -l /etc/hosts
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 98 2008-12-31 09:03 /etc/hosts


C-h v tramp-verbose shows:
tramp-verbose is a variable defined in `tramp.el'.
Its value is 9


Documentation:
*Verbosity level for Tramp.
Any level x includes messages for all levels 1 .. x-1.  The levels are

 0  silent (no tramp messages at all)
 1  errors
 2  warnings
 3  connection to remote hosts (default level)
 4  activities
 5  internal
 6  sent and received strings
 7  file caching
 8  connection properties
10  traces (huge).

You can customize this variable.
