I tried "emacs -q -no-site-file", then added ~/work/gnu/tramp/lisp/
to load-path, then (require 'tramp), then (setq tramp-debug-buffer
t), then I commented out the first tramp-message call in that
function, did C-x C-f /ftp: RET, and this is what I got:

/----[ *debug tramp/ssh ftp* ]
| # Opening connection at ftp using ssh...
| # file-accessible-directory-p (/tmp)
| # expand-file-name (/tmp /tmp/)
| # file-directory-p (/tmp)
| # expand-file-name (/tmp /tmp/)
| # expand-file-name (/tmp nil)
| # file-executable-p (/tmp)
| # expand-file-name (/tmp nil)
| # Waiting for prompts from remote shell
| # Waiting 60s for prompt from remote shell
\----

/----[ *debug tramp/nil nil* ]
| # substitute-in-file-name (/ftp:)
| # expand-file-name (/ftp: nil)
\----

I see no completion here.  I wonder why you are seeing a different
behavior.  Is it because I use CVS Emacs?
