efs/dired bug?

When I am in a buffer at a remote site <current> with efs-1.6,
and I try to find-file say at another remote site <new>, which I have
not visited yet, I get an error (in the minibuffer):

Setting current directory: no such file or directory /<current>....

If I type out <new> by hand (it can't complete at this point) and
press return however, it _does_ dired the `home' dir at <new>.

The backtrace from the debugger follows.
