[Linux-cluster] RHEL AS 4.5 GFS bug after removing a file?

This is a weird use-case:

Our /home is mounted on GFS in an 11-node cluster.
I develop a script with 755 permission bits in my ~/bin.
I test it.
After it is tested, I `cp ~/bin/mybackup.sh /usr/local/sbin` (a local
ext3 filesystem)
Later, I remove ~/bin/mybackup.sh
Now whenever I invoke mybackup.sh, bash
returns /home/rhurst/bin/mybackup.sh: No such file or directory
and `which mybackup.sh` returns /usr/local/sbin/mybackup.sh

Who's caching this wrong here, bash or GFS?
