Some ideas on what to try, in order to narrow down possibilities:

* Does 'B s' (reschedule, instead of re-deadline) fail in the same way
  as 'B d'? How about other bulk actions?
* How about if you unmark only the second entry, leaving 1,3,4...
  marked, in case the problem is specifically the second entry?
* Do all the entries have a deadline to start with? (Shouldn't make a
  difference, but might be useful to know).
* Have you ever used 'edebug'? That would be my next step.
