Write a bug report that describes which values aren't updating correctly
and what events preceded the problem.  Note that if you directly
manipulate the DB with phpMyAdmin or the like, the cache will get out of
sync until it expires or until the value in question is updated.  The
cache currently expires after one day, but I think that should be
shortened.

To disable the cache entirely, add the following to wp-config.php.

define('DISABLE_CACHE', true);

To flush the cache manually, a plugin that simply calls wp_cache_flush()
will drop the entire cache.

I'll look over the URL update code.
