   I've verified this problem with emacs versions 19.22 and 19.27 on
HP-UX, AIX, IRIX, SunOS...

   When a file is read via ange-ftp, emacs gets confused about the
save state. A file will be marked "clean" not only when it's the same
as the most-recently-saved version, but also when it's the same as a
previous save (including the original load).
   For example: load a file using ange-ftp, and insert a letter and
save it. Now the "clean" version of the file is the one with the extra
letter. But if you undo the change (thus making the file different
from the saved version), the file is still marked as clean, and an
attempt to save will give the message "(No changes need to be saved)".
   Making more than one change between saves makes the bug more
obvious. Successive undo's will show the file marked clean at the most
recently saved, then dirty, then clean again at the previous save,
then dirty again, then clean again at yet another previous save.
