Comment:

 I've got GNU Emacs 24.2.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin, NS apple-appkit-1038.36)
 of 2012-08-27 on bob.porkrind.org and it still has the issue. I've tried
 both workarounds of setting TMPDIR=/tmp and modifying/byte-compiling the
 tramp-compat.el.gz, but I still get:
   CentOS release 5.8 (Final)

   Kernel 2.6.18-194.32.1.el5 on an x86_64

   ControlPath too long (followed by a hat-M, like a CTRL-M from windows
 line ending?)

 Any way that I can provide more details to help
 diagnose/reproduce/workaround this problem? I would really like to use
 tramp on the mac but it is unusable due to this error. I'm trying to do
 things like open "~/bin/file_name.sh" on a host named "aa-master". It
 seems like the control path for that would be really, really short.

 My username is only six chars, and this is my obfuscated but character-
 count-equivalent ssh config (note that I've tried with and without
 ControlPath being set):

   Host aa-master

   HostName aa-hudson-master-vm.ottffssente.com

   User ottffs

   IdentitiesOnly yes

   IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa

   ControlPath /c/c-%r
