Not reproducible here. But I'm running Tramp 2.1.7-pre, which includes
some bug fixes compared with 2.1.6.

The easiest way would be to apply "M-x tramp-submit-bug" after
repeating the test. Please set (setq tramp-verbose 8) before running
the test, and append the Tramp buffers to your mail as offered.

Another useful thing is to mail the backtrace which you get when
setting (setq debug-on-error t).

Best regards, Michael.
