Thanks. I had already tried this trick, with no success. I'm suspicious of
everything, but I hope I've largely excluded the browser as the problem.
With Firefox you can use about:cache to see just what's being kept, both on
disk and in memory, and it does seem that the cache is empty. Also, the
behavior is the same with Firefox, IE, and Opera, making me think that the
caching is somewhere else.
What's frustrating me is that there are dozens of different versions of my
CSS file being kept somewhere. If I reuse a name from weeks ago, all the old
values are still present. But I've tried searching the disks of both the
client and server machines, and I don't find that content. I guess that
means that the cached data is in some other format, perhaps compressed. It's
very odd. I haven't had this problem when developing across physically
distinct client and server machines, so I'm suspicious that it has something
to do with the VM environment, but I don't know where else to look. I was
just hoping somebody on this list might have a similar development
environment and could have seen this problem.
Does Apache ever cache anything, maybe just in memory, if the mod_cache
extension isn't enabled? Is there a mechanism for examining its memory
cache?

I'm still suspicious of the browser, but don't have any specific advice
there.
I did find this which you could try if all else fails:
