It seems that there is something fishy with temporary bans in general
(in L4D that is). If someone gets voted off my server, he does appear
in the listid list with a 5 minute ban, but it looks like the minutes
remaining doesn't count down.
The other day I banned an annoying player, that kept trying to
teamkill the rest of us. I gave him a 24 hour temporary ban, but as
soon as the map changed, the ban was gone, and he was back.

Permanent bans works fine. I wonder if the problems with time-limited
bans has anything to do with forked servers?
