I haven't noticed it, but it looks like Nikon has a serious QC problem:
Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8 VRII thread issue: that is normal
By [NR] admin | January 12, 2010
UPDATE: I received a word that Nikon is looking into this issue and will have an official statement soon. Lets wait and see.
Here is the translated response from Nikon Beijing Service Center dated 01/11 regarding the previously reported 70-200 f/2.8 thread issue (source: xitek).

Failures Observed: lens thread defect at 200mm (the customer believes either thread or its coating peeling off). Inspection requested.
Maintenance Performed: After inspection, thread of the lens submitted indeed has certain peeling. However, that is normal when the surface of that metal was manufactured. There, the alleged problem will not affect the lens performance, rigidness, or function.
