I don't see that problem with the "-d" option. Tramp sends the following
command, and gets a correct result:

21:29:57.765000 tramp-send-command (6) # (test -e /usr || test -h /usr) && 
/bin/ls -ildn /usr
21:29:57.843000 tramp-wait-for-regexp (6) #
565248 drwxr-xr-x  16 0  0  512 Jun  1 00:35 /usr
///039279ac247f106ef8c5ee615236f77d#$

Later on, Tramp parses the result, and sets file-attributes for /usr:

21:29:57.875000 tramp-set-file-property (8) # /usr file-attributes-integer (t 
16 0 0 (0 0) (0 0) (0 0) 512 drwxr-xr-x nil (8 . 40960) (-1 . 0))

This looks almost OK, except that Tramp does not parse the date correct,
and it assumes (0 0). That's a usual fallback.

If you want a directory listing via C-x d (as you have written in the
original email), there shall also be other "ls" commands in the trace. I
don't see them in the traces, have you tried the directory listing?

Best regards, Michael.
