bug#644: 23.0.60; diary-anniversary failure

[Eythan Weg]

Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:



emacs -Q
M-: (setq diary-file "~/dd")

the content of dd is:

%%(diary-anniversary 11 14 2008) Y's Birthday 
%%(diary-anniversary 1 14 2008) X's Birthday 

Start the calendar.  Check the diary for the two
dates.  The first anniversary fails to show.  The
second works.

Thanks,  Eythan
