Sounds remotely familiar.
What are the tramp methods you're using?
The default one, ssh.
Are you using the XEmacs tramp syntax vs. the Emacs tramp syntax?
XEmacs syntax, i.e.:
C-x C-f /[machine.name]:~/ TAB TAB
etc. Using the Emacs syntax makes efs kick in instead of tramp.
If you do get a lisp errors, then a lisp backtrace would be helpful:
[snip]
Provoke the error again.
XEmacs does not hang. Here are the contents of the *Backtrace* buffer:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (invalid-state "Bogus value for
`default-process-coding-system'" nil)
signal(invalid-state ("Bogus value for
`default-process-coding-system'" nil))
byte-code("..." [buf data kill-buffer signal] 3)
find-file-noselect("/[ssh/dspmac2.elec.qmul.ac.uk]/Users/andrew/foo")
mapcar(find-file-noselect
("/[ssh/dspmac2.elec.qmul.ac.uk]/Users/andrew/foo"))
find-file-noselect("/[dspmac2.elec.qmul.ac.uk]~/foo" nil nil t)
