--bug report follows this line--
I visit a file in an unwritable remote directory. I modify the
buffer. I try to save my changes. The operation fails. The only
error message is "tramp_exit_status 2" in the "*tramp/METHOD HOST*"
buffer.
Turning on tramp-debug-buffer reveals that what failed was attempting
to copy the file to a backup file name.
This works fine locally and via ange-ftp, so I think it should work in
TRAMP.
