Well, I don't run macOS, so I cannot reproduce.

Could you please apply the appended patch to tramp-tests.el? Then run

$ rm test/lisp/net/tramp-tests.log
$ timeout -v 30s make -C test lisp/net/tramp-tests.log 
SELECTOR=tramp-test35-remote-path

This generates the file tramp-tests.log, which I would like to
see. Likely, it is huge, so pls send it directly to me.

I have also shortened the timeout to 30s; usually the test runs a
second, or two.

Best rewgards, Michael.
