When I'm prompted for a password while accessing a remote directory using TRAMP in Emacs, sometimes the password isn't hidden (i.e. periods aren't echoed in the minibuffer, but the actual password is echoed instead).

The good news is that the bug happens predictably. The instructions for reproducing the bug are below. It works for both emacs-X11 and emacs-w32, both run with the -q flag. However, the bug disappears if run with the -Q flag.
I can't reproduce the problem. The fact that it occurs with -q but not -Q suggests that the problem has something to do with your site initialization. (-Q forces --no-site-file and --no-site-lisp.) I suggest that you look in /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp to see if something there could be causing the problem.
