1.2.2-4?? That is ancient, and there was a bug in knfsd's rmdir operation which could cause exactly these symptoms. Please upgrade to knfsd-1.4.7 and see if you can reprodce the problem.
We know that (a) dodgy hardware and (b) the knfsd problem can explain huge numbers of these reports, but it's hard to completely exclude the possibility of other faults in the current kernels. It would really help to eliminate variables if you could go to a more recent knfsd.
