My guess is that the function that is supposed to find the
messages returns nil for some reason (which causes the calling
function to try out the next function in the list - forgot which
list, something like planner-browse-url-functions - and
ultimately that calls browse-url, that calls your normal
browser).  

Since it only happens with older tasks, I'd say these messages
are not found anymore?  (re-search-forward returns nil if nothing
is found.  BTW, Sacha: I'd set this to re-search-backward: one is
more likely to need recent messages.)
