I guess my post was too long to get the point across. Here's my test
diary-file:
---------------------------------------------------------
;-*- mode: lisp; auto-fill-mode: off; fill-column: 999999 -*-
%%(diary-anniversary 9 18 1970) %d years ago it was 9/18/1970
%%(diary-anniversary 9 19 1911) %d years ago it was 9/19/1911
%%(diary-anniversary 9 20 1934) %d years ago it was 9/20/1934
%%(diary-anniversary 9 20 1885) %d years ago it was 9/20/1885
%%(diary-anniversary 9 20 1878) $d years ago it was 9/20/1878
;end of ~/diary.emacs
---------------------------------------------------------
I run M-x diary and this is the output:
-------------------------------------------------------
%%(diary-anniversary 9 18 1970) %d years ago it was 9/18/1970
%%(diary-anniversary 9 19 1911) %d years ago it was 9/19/1911
%%(diary-anniversary 9 20 1934) %d years ago it was 9/20/1934
%%(diary-anniversary 9 20 1885) %d years ago it was 9/20/1885
%%(diary-anniversary 9 20 1878) $d years ago it was 9/20/1878
----------------------------------------------------------
I didn't think that is what it's supposed to do.

Oh, yeah. the toggle-debug-on-error helped find the problem. It was a
diary-related thing in my .emacs. Out of urgency I just commented them
all out for now, so I don't know yet which statement caused the error,
but it's gone now.
