bug#30455: 27.0.50; problem in diary-remind

[John]

Today I got a warning from my diary when I started emacs, my .emacs
file having lisp to display my diary on start-up.

Error (diary): Bad diary sexp at line 19 in /home/jpff/diary:
(diary-remind '(diary-date 3 1 2018) '(20 15 12 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0))
Error: (void-variable days)

This has been apparently working until now, but I do notice today is 15
days before 1March.  Could not find out what the void-variable meant.
