bug#4260: 23.1.50; tramp is loading unnecessarily

[Peter Dyballa]

Hello!

When I type C-x d /Vol TAB to visit a local directory and expand its  
name TRAMP is loaded without reason.

When I launch GNU Emacs as

        src/emacs-23.1.50.1 -Q lisp/emacs-lisp &

TRAMP is not loaded. It is also not loaded when I type

        C-x d M-DEL inter TAB RET

When I type

        C-x d / RET

TRAMP is not loaded. When I now type

        C-x d Vol TAB

TRAMP is loaded. When I am (in new session and in the same test  
sequence) in / and move the text cursor onto the Volumes entry and  
press f TRAMP is not loaded.

When I launch GNU Emacs as

        src/emacs-23.1.50.1 -Q /Volumes &

TRAMP is not loaded. When I f(ollow) into a sub-directory TRAMP is  
neither loaded.

Why is TRAMP loaded at all in some situation when I try to access a  
local file system?
