This is a kernel bug, fixed with this patch:
commit 755c1e20cd2ad56e5c567fa05769eb98a3eef72b
Author: Trond Myklebust <address@hidden>
Date: Mon Mar 20 13:44:06 2006 -0500
NFS: writes should not clobber utimes() calls
Ensure that we flush out writes in the case when someone calls utimes() in
order to set the file times.
