Yes, it's a bug, and it's fixed in Skim's subversion repository.  It  
may work if you open the file in Finder first.

This is indeed a better solution, and moves the reload where it's  
actually supposed to be.  Doing it by having the viewer guess at when  
the file is ready is a real pain, and has never made sense to me.
