This sounds like it's a bug in your kernel's NFS-client
implementation, or perhaps your C library.
If the bug is reproducible, what system calls is 'rm' executing when
it exhibits the problem? You can determine this by running
strace rm -R -f test
and looking at the output.
You might also try upgrading to coreutils 5.2.0 (the latest version)
<ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/coreutils/coreutils-5.2.0.tar.gz>
but if it's a kernel or C library bug that won't help much I'm afraid.
