Cool. So it will be part of Emacs 24, right?

Here is the code that checks if a remote encoder and decoder work:
"Checking remote decoding command `%s' for sanity" rem-dec)
(unless (tramp-send-command-and-check
vec
(format "echo %s | %s | %s" magic rem-enc rem-dec)
t)
(throw 'wont-work-remote nil))
(this is from Emacs trunk, but the code in the patch you sent is
essentially the same)
It checks that the command exits with zero status code, but does not
check that it's output is the same as input, i.e. `magic'. If it did,
then I would not found the original issue, because "uudecode -o
/dev/stdout" does not output anything on the affected system and the
check would fail (it would still create /dev/stdout file, but I would
not notice that).
