Isn't this a general nfs problem anyway?
However, I am getiing a deja vu feeling here. Either we already
discussed his a while ago but the change was never made _or_ the
behaviour was intentionally changed to be this way.
Cannot test the patch here as I am too far away from a test machine now.
And wasn't the solution { fsync() fstat() close() }?
