Look whether your tramp-invoke-ange-ftp looks like this:

(defun tramp-invoke-ange-ftp (operation &rest args)
  "Invoke the Ange-FTP handler function and throw."
  (or (boundp 'ange-ftp-name-format) (require 'ange-ftp))
  (let ((ange-ftp-name-format
         (list (nth 0 tramp-file-name-structure)
               (nth 3 tramp-file-name-structure)
               (nth 2 tramp-file-name-structure)
               (nth 4 tramp-file-name-structure))))
    (throw 'tramp-forward-to-ange-ftp
           (tramp-run-real-handler 'ange-ftp-hook-function
                                   (cons operation args)))))

Does it use tramp-run-real-handler in the next-to-last line?  If no,
please update Tramp and tell me if it works now.

(Remember to delete any old *.elc files and to restart Emacs and all
that Jazz.)
