Why I don't know.

I know it never gets to tramp-post-connection, because it hangs in
accept-process-output.

Here is what I get when I
C-g (keyboard-quit)
after
M-x toggle-debug-on-quit

Signaling: (quit)

Yep, I noticed, but don't know what to make of it.

    Kai> Or did I copy and paste stuff which does not belong together?  Is

No.

    Kai> there more between "Setting shell prompt" and the "/////" prompts?

Here is what I get in *Message-Log* (trying to log in to another
account):
