I am puzzled. The bug is almost certainly related to commit
211b137ef46d04b17b46f256696eb5c1c3a1d2be which changed org-agenda-skip
to check text properties rather than # explicitly. I can attest that
the bug does not show with a version earlier than that commit.

OTOH, it does not show *consistently* with the most recent version.
In a minimal test, I have the following file as the only file in the
agenda list:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
# timestamp: <2013-01-24 Thu>

* TODO foo
  SCHEDULED: <2013-01-24 Thu>
  
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

and when I construct the agenda, I get the no-heading message; but if I
visit the file, and M-x describe-text-properties RET on the # in the
first line, it correctly says that the face is font-lock-comment-face;
constructing the agenda after that does *not* produce the message.

Are text properties assigned lazily perhaps? If so, they will need to be
somehow forced in this case.

Nick

PS. BTW, can you reproduce this behavior or am I tilting at windmills?
