Yes, I prepare patches in the git repository.

Maybe this led to problems. I see now the errors

Instead of removing ~/emacs.d/tramp, you might call "M-x
tramp-cleanup-all-connections".
This is safer.

Thanks. I see now the error

The command is shorter than 250 chars, so it must be something
different. "stat" is still involved, I start to believe we shall simply
ban stat for remote Solaris.
I`ve prepared another patch, which does it. Pls remove the first patch,
and install this instead. And run "M-x tramp-cleanup-all-connections"
before testing.
