Actually, it has nothing to do with EFS itself.  It's a bug somewhere
else that should go on the bugs list.

Do "xemacs -q".

(setq default-directory "/ftp:/bla/")

And then C-x C-f or something, you also get the error.

(featurep 'efs-dump)

still yields nil, i.e. the EFS handler never got called.  There's some
evil interaction between default-directory and
file-name-handlers-alist that needs to be tracked down.  I just spent
an hour on this, but no dice so far.  (Anybody know how to at least
get a backtrace out of this situation?)

The problem is also in 19.14, but not in FSFmacs 19.34.

I'll spend more time on this on the weekend.  Not now, unfortunately.
Time to build a binary kit ...
