It looks like there's a bug with this when planner-carry-tasks-forward
is non-nil. Things are okay if the status is _ OR o OR X, but using P
creates what appears to be an infinite loop.

Here's the Tasks portion of my 2004.04.15 entry pre carried forward:

   #A1  P Make database filename changes PENDING NEW LOCATION {{Tasks:21}}
(AlchemyDatabaseMigration)
   #A2  P Prepare Alchemy.ini PENDING NEW LOCATION {{Tasks:19}}
(AlchemyDatabaseMigration)
   #A3  P Create DEF for IntraOffice Reports Pending bbdb://PhyllisB fixing
register report {{Tasks:15}} (IntraOffice)
   #B1  X 20m update tasks list {{Tasks:24}}
   #B2  X 1h DIR Automation Scripts {{Tasks:9}} (DocumentImagingRequest)

Here's the same file after carrying forward after I interupted the loop (note
the project page references have changed to the current date):

   #A2  P Prepare Alchemy.ini PENDING NEW LOCATION {{Tasks:19}} (2004.04.16)
   #A3  P Create DEF for IntraOffice Reports Pending bbdb://PhyllisB fixing
register report {{Tasks:15}} (2004.04.16)
   #B1  X 20m update tasks list {{Tasks:24}}
   #B2  X 1h DIR Automation Scripts {{Tasks:9}} (DocumentImagingRequest)

And here's the first couple iterations of the loop from the current day (i.e.
2004.04.16) file after I interupted the loop (again, note the project page
references have changed to the current date, becoming, in fact,
self-referencing):

   #A1  P Make database filename changes PENDING NEW LOCATION {{Tasks:21}}
(2004.04.16)
   #A2  P Prepare Alchemy.ini PENDING NEW LOCATION {{Tasks:19}} (2004.04.16)
   #A3  P Create DEF for IntraOffice Reports Pending bbdb://PhyllisB fixing
register report {{Tasks:15}} (2004.04.16)
   #A1  P Make database filename changes PENDING NEW LOCATION {{Tasks:21}}
(2004.04.16)
   #A2  P Prepare Alchemy.ini PENDING NEW LOCATION {{Tasks:19}} (2004.04.16)
   #A3  P Create DEF for IntraOffice Reports Pending bbdb://PhyllisB fixing
register report {{Tasks:15}} (2004.04.16)
   #A1  P Make database filename changes PENDING NEW LOCATION {{Tasks:21}}
(2004.04.16)
   (... this pattern continues as many times as it was able to process before
being interrupted ...)


ALSO, emacs-wiki-table.el seems to have an extra right parenthesis closing the
defun statement (line 96).
