Yes, I tried this.  I went to the page content type edit mode and 
selected "Access Control" and enabled the "Per node access control 
settings".  I created a page as UID 1 and promoted it to the front 
page.  I set the access control to Anonymous view only.  I logged out 
checked that anonymous can see it.  I logged in as my normal node entry 
user and checked that it doesn't show.

It does show when the UID is 1 but whether or not that is a bug is left 
to interpretation of ideas.  As Drupal is coded UID 1 should have 
rights to all data so it isn't a bug but as designed.
