I think the evil-doer is the blog plugin. I'll analyse this and post a
bugfix update later. In the meantime, try to set
$conf['blog']['useifmodifiedsince'] to 0.

It's not DokuWiki that caches these pages but your browser. I've built in
functionality to allow this because otherwise the blog plugin, which
prevents DokuWiki caching, would lead to poor performance. But it seems some
conditions aren't set right.
