My indy and I were talking about good practices the other day and this came up.
He and I both clean the hub mounting face before putting on a new rotor. Then we use high temp grease on it as well. I always wire wheel the hub to remove any corrosion, including at the edges.
It is possible that you have some corrosion on the hub that is causing the problem--the rotor is quite flat on the hub. A nuisance to check but worth a look. Also, are you sure your caliper mounting bolts are tight? Are the slide pins greased and tight?
Assuming that stuff is okay and a pad isn't cracked (or somehow not fitted quite right), I'm with Mr. Goldberger and a defective rotor.
