Why does (substitute-in-file-name "/foo") returns "c:/msys64/foo"? This
is not covered by the description of `substitute-in-file-name'.

Does it work, if you change the patch like this:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
                  (concat (file-remote-p filename)
                          (tramp-drop-volume-letter
                           (tramp-run-real-handler
                            (substitute-in-file-name (list localname))))))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
