If this is a timestamp problem (of which I am not sure), perhaps tuning 
nfs_32_time_ok would help? Try to set in /etc/system file:
   set nfs:nfs_32_time_ok = 0xffffffff
then reboot.

There are other problems with the texlive-20010307, reported today
by Staszek: pdftex/pdfetex for Linux are broken under RedHat6.2:

  # ldd /mnt/cdrom/bin/i386-linux/pdftex
  libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 => not found
  libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x4001c000)
  libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40039000)
  /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)

  # ldd /mnt/cdrom/bin/i386-linux/pdfetex
  libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 => not found
  libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x4001c000)
  libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40039000)
  /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)

The versions compiled here show something like:
  # ldd pdftex
  libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x4001c000)
  libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x40039000)
  /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)
