So I thought I would try to 'fix' this the easy way by removing my
customization for org-agenda-ndays but that makes it worse.  After
removing the customization and restarting emacs the '.' key in the
agenda goes to Saturday (today is Monday).  I have my week starting on
Saturday for the agenda display - when viewing a single day it jumps to
the first day of the week instead of today.

I've reinstated my org-agenda-ndays variable setting as shown in the
minimal emacs setup that follows.
