I'd guess there's a race condition between creating the file and setting the
read-only attributes.

On both your machine and the NFS server (if you can), you might want to ensure
that nfs-utils is at the latest version (1.0.5), and your kernel is
up-to-date, etc, etc. NFS in Linux has always been a bit odd at times. I
think 2.6 is supposed to have yet another new NFS impl. I haven't tried it
yet though.

My working copies on Solaris are on NFS mounts without a problem.
(Repositories are on local disks though.) -- justin
