This patch fixes my problem, but indicates that there is a startup
sequencing issue that may also affect other parts of org.  

First the patch

+++ org-agenda.el	2012-09-17 06:02:45.000000000 -0400

 (defvar org-mobile-force-id-on-agenda-items)  ; defined in org-mobile.el
 (defvar org-habit-show-habits)                ; defined in org-habit.el
 (defvar org-habit-show-habits-only-for-today)

 ;; Defined somewhere in this file, but used before definition.
 (defvar org-agenda-buffer-name "*Org Agenda*")

Second, the symptom

Without this patch the emacs config shows the "show-all-today" as having
been changed outside the config process, and it is set to "nil" rather
than the setting in the .emacs file.  It shows this immediately upon
startup when the config option is started and nothing else has been done.

If I understand defvar properly, this means that the org-agenda is being
evaluated before the .emacs, which is not what I expected at all.  So
either I don't understand defvar properly or the order of evaluation at
startup is not what I thought.  Either way, there are possibly other
defvars that need fixing.

Now that org-habit is part of the base org-mode, perhaps the proper fix
is to remove those three defvars.  Someone who understands the startup
sequence should make that decision.
