I have seen one occurance of this on my machine - dual Pentium IIIs. 2.3.43.
ls <file-name> would list the file. ls -l <file-name> would generate an I/O error, as would any other attempt to open the file.
Rebooted a day or two later (after my first occurance of seeing the missing interrupt for /dev/hda for the first time ever - system would not recover). fsck reported a bad/unused inode. The inode number was around 26,000.
