Comment(by gorzarg@…):

 You used the default Mac OS emacs (i.e. /usr/bin/emacs)? I used emacs.app
 (from MacPorts) to do the byte-compilations, and it worked okay. I also
 have (auto-compression-mode t) in my .emacs file to edit compressed files
 on the fly (you can also do M-x auto-compression-mode).

 Hope that helps any other users with problems with tramp.

 Emacs for MacOS build (23.3.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin, NS apple-
 appkit-1038.35)) -- tramp.el gives error on (require 'tramp-compat) --
 "Cannot open load file: tramp-compat". I got around this by deleting
 tramp.elc and tramp-compat.elc, unzipping tramp and tramp-compat, and
 doing gorzarg's modification in tramp-compat.el.
