Are you using UFS? This sounds a lot like a problem with FSpExchangeFiles.

- If I edit an ASCII template file for Radio UserLand (a fairly typical old school Mac classic App) with TextEdit, emacs, or any other editor that saves a backup file and does so atomically (as a good program should), Radio Userland will continue to use the last revision of the file and won't reference the new file until I save the file *again* and thereby delete the backup file to which the reference was still pointing. Office used to do something similar and I frequently found myself editing the OLD version of some random document where I had been sent a newer version via email and had tried to copy it over the old version.
