No you are not, I have the same problem. I'm running a production NFS4 server, 
with a bunch of  kerberized clients and a couple of AUTH_SYS clients. The 
coherency problem only occurs on the AUTH_SYS clients. Server is a SLES10 
using 2.6.16.27, problematic clients are either SLES10 (Same kernel) or 
openSUSE 10.2 using 2.6.18.2.

It even happens when there are minutes between the two access on the file. 
However, if I 'touch' the file before reading it on the second machine, all 
the modifications are there.
