This problem was discussed before. See the archive, if you are
interested in that. Briefly speaking, Linux should be blamed. We have
no (good) way to fix the problem with Linux 2.4.x.

However, I hope someone could find out a workaround, which is assumed
to work well, not just by chance. As you wrote, "mount -o remount"
might be enough, but it is *necessary* to examine if that really
avoids the problem by reading the Linux source code. I would disagree
to add a workaround, until it is confirmed. I myself have no time to
check it, unfortunately (plus, I myself am not using 2.4.x for now).
