via M-x org-contacts-anniversaries? I get "No match"

Yes, I already had this in .emacs (and obtained "No match")

I found out that the error happens due to either one of two reasons:
1) I have a :BIRTHDAY: tag which is <1970 or >2037
2) I have an empty :BIRTHDAY: tag
Have you seen my link to stackoverflow above? I got help there and =
finally realized that it's linked to the problem discussed here =
(involving posts of you, too):
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/39206

Is that solved? Will it be (automatically) solved if Emacs (for Mac) =
learns how to use the Mac's 64 bit architecture?

Cheers,
