Although it is not a magical attack, holy water can affect incorporeal undead, but a hit with holy water has a 50% chance of not affecting an incorporeal creature.

I checked the MM IV, and it says the same thing as the MM on the matter.

Evidently there is a bit of a discrepancy in how incorporeality is handled in the DMG vs. the MM. (I've bolded the relevant detail.)

From the DMG section on incorporeality:
Incorporeal creatures can be harmed only by other incorporeal creatures, by magic weapons, or by spells, spell-like effects, or supernatural effects. They are immune to all nonmagical attack forms.
