Does anyone else experience following problem?

Import/create mesh, do some transform on object level. Than create instance, use imported object as object to instance, do some transform on instance, hit render, instance is moved on wrong position. In viewport it works OK, but not in rendering. I submitted this as a bug year ago I think, but I want to check if maybe I am doing something wrong here.

Is it possible that no one is experiencing this ?
It makes it impossible to manually place instances, viewport shows one render other …

I experienced similar problem and found solution here http://www.sidefx.com/index.php?option=com_forum&Itemid=172&page=viewtopic&t=12123&highlight=instance+render [sidefx.com].
