Copying your commands verbatim, I get:

Here's something new and different that I just noticed. I can toggle
both the "read-only" behavior and the missing remote machine-name
behavior by using tilde expansion or an explicit path. Previously,
the read-only behavior appeared randomly and the missing machine name
did not occur. To clarify, if I open this file as:
/r@turing:swift@localhost:/hc/swift/.tcshrc
the file opens read/write and when I open another file from within
that buffer, the prompt is pre-pended with the same remote machine
information.
"Find file: /r@turing:swift@localhost:/hc/swift/"
However, if I open with:
/r@turing:swift@localhost:~/.tcshrc
the file is opened read-only and subsequent find file commands prompt
me with:
"Find file: /hc/swift/"
This is absolutely reproducible for me. I've done it about at least a
half dozen times now. In different emacs sessions and even across a
machine reboot to restart the sshd.
Some pertinent information:
You will notice that this is a custom connect method. I have to
connect to the remote machine through a ssh gateway using
port-forwarding. I've never been able to get the multi-hop methods to
work, so I just created a method for each tunneled machine I go to.
This method is:
("turing" (tramp-connection-function tramp-open-connection-rsh) (tramp-rsh-program
"ssh") (tramp-rcp-program "scp") (tramp-remote-sh "/bin/sh") (tramp-rsh-args ("-e"
"none" "-p" "5555")) (tramp-rcp-args ("-P" "5555")) (tramp-rcp-keep-date-arg "-p")
(tramp-su-program nil) (tramp-su-args nil) (tramp-encoding-command nil)
(tramp-decoding-command nil) (tramp-encoding-function nil) (tramp-decoding-function
nil) (tramp-telnet-program nil))
local machine:

This behavior has changed since upgrading OpenSSH 2.5p2 to 2.9p1 on
the local machine this morning. The local machine was also upgraded
from IRIX 6.5.11f to 6.5.12f a few days ago, but I believe I have
successfully opened files on the remote machine "turing" since the OS
upgrade.
That's about all the parameters I can think of. If you need more,
just let me know.
Thanks,
Spencer
