Thanks. Will see whether I van deploy it.

Hah! Solaris does not report an error when using -w wrongly:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
13:37:37.663445 tramp-send-command (6) # /usr/xpg6/bin/ls --color=never -w -al 
/dev/null 2>/dev/null; echo tramp_exit_status $?
13:37:37.666618 tramp-wait-for-regexp (6) #
/dev/null
tramp_exit_status 0
///43a09477d4e2f750c7c378c684d8bfb7#$
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Could you please try the appended patch for tramp-sh.el?
