In 2.2-pre5, in an NFS client, if I create a directory tree, move it, and
then try and tar up the newly created tree, I get:

tar: Read error at byte 0, reading 4 bytes, in file BitCluster-0.3/version: Input/output error
tar: Read error at byte 0, reading 694 bytes, in file BitCluster-0.3/Makefile: I

If I add in a

sync; sleep 5

before the tar, it works fine. If this is not a known problem, I'll provide
a tar ball which will reproduce the problem.
