I haven't looked at the implementation, but if your description is
correct, then we're definitely in trouble.

I would have expected that the unversioned-metadata (i.e., currently
only revprop) generation would always be updated regardless of cache
settings, and never be cached. I presume changing the implementation to
behave this way would fix the problem?

And by all means, do commit your failing test case.
