I filed a bugreport:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=183208
It includes an attachment of an ethereal dump of the network traffic.
The timestamp is transfered (mtime) and acknowledged. Bother client and
server are running the same kernel version, 1977_FC5 (although server was
initially running 1955_FC5).
Installing kernel-2.6.15-1.2008_FC5 on the client side resolves the
problem. Thanks.
