Or use the following piece of code/hack in your extension, it works just 
fine for me to adress this "problem" (yes, it is a problem). Again, a hack, 
but does the trick until a clean solution is found.

  $ts = mktime();
  $now = gmdate("YmdHis", $ts + 120);
  $ns = $wgTitle->getNamespace();
  $ti = wfStrencode($wgTitle->getDBkey());
  $sql = "UPDATE cur SET cur_touched='$now' WHERE cur_namespace=$ns AND 
cur_title='$ti'";
  wfQuery($sql, DB_WRITE, "kwBreadCrumbsNoCache");
