bug#6923: 24.0.50; Can't load remote elc.gz file using tramp-ftp

Hi,

Now there is the file gnus.elc.gz in: /ftp:ftp.jpl.org:/pub/tmp/lisp
You can see this one fails:

(let ((load-path (cons "/ftp:ftp.jpl.org:/pub/tmp/lisp" load-path)))
  (load "gnus"))

;; (require 'gnus) also fails.

This might not be a bug and there might not be a demand either,
but loading elc.gz file using tramp-ssh succeeds (you don't have
access to this, sorry):

(let ((load-path (cons "/ssh:jpl.org:~/ftp/pub/tmp/lisp" load-path)))
  (load "gnus"))

It seems easy to solve.  How about the attached patch?

BTW, after starting Emacs, I needed to do tramp-ftp (e.g. dired)
to the remote site before testing the above two items.  If not,
I got the error `Variable binding depth exceeds max-specpdl-size'
for unknown reason.  At that time, there were many "*ftp-.netrc*<N>"
buffers, in which `buffer-file-name' was "~/.netrc".  I'd like to
investigate this when I have time.

Regards,
