Could you, please, check which ls is used on the remote host (in a shell
started by /bin/sh)?

# which ls

Furthermore, it might be interesting to know what happens if you apply
the following statements on your remote host in that shell:

# while read d; do if test -x $d/ls -a -f $d/ls; then echo tramp_executable 
$d/ls; break; fi; done <<'EOF'
/bin
/usr/bin
/usr/sbin
/usr/local/bin
EOF

Best regards, Michael.
