just making sure i'm getting this.

in maint, if org-agenda-repeating-timestamp-show-all is nil we get
72x. if it is non nil we get 2x. i'm in the 72x camp, so i don't need to
do anything.

when master comes around org-agenda-repeating-timestamp-show-all will go
away. to get 72x make sure that org-agenda-prefer-last-repeat is nil (?)

close?

thanks.
