when I 'touch' on Windows or Linux, it does what you expect, not what 
you're observing.  It autoreverts the file.

I have this in .emacs:

(autoload 'auto-revert-mode "autorevert" nil t)
(autoload 'turn-on-auto-revert-mode "autorevert" nil nil)
(autoload 'global-auto-revert-mode "autorevert" nil t)
(global-auto-revert-mode 1)
(setq auto-revert-interval 2)
(global-set-key "\C-cr" 'revert-buffer)
