Lately I read that some volunteer intended to compile newer Windows
builds, hopefully soon...

Oh dear, of course, Gnu Elpa!  This workaround for Tramp never occurred
to me! :-)

OK, installed 2.5.1.3 but it didn't work from emacs -Q!  I copied again
the error messages into the tramp.org file (on Windows) and here's what
came out under Gnu-Linux:

installed: tramp-2.5.1.3, then emacs -Q

Unfortunately method completion is still not working for me. (With emacs
-Q for / s TAB and / p TAB)

Anyway, thank you very much for your support, do you have other hints
which I could test or debug?
