I'm relieved that you see it now; I was beginning to think there was
something quirky in just my Emacs source tree.  I don't have much else
to suggest at the moment, except, as I mentioned in my OP, I'm quite
sure I've seen this problem before, which means it's not, after all,
just those two dates (at least I don't recall having looked at these
specific future calendar dates).  I don't have time right now to try
and systematically test other dates, but I assume there must be a
pattern somewhere (I did, however, test (5 5 2005) and (5 4 2005) and
they didn't show the fontification problem).
