Hi Bastien,

Unfortunately, it continues to happen.  There doesn't seem to be
anything in my configuration that would cause this.

I have started with emacs -q (and also emacs -Q just in case) and then
eval'ed the following statements:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
  (add-to-list 'load-path "~/git/org-mode/lisp")
  (require 'org)
  (setq org-agenda-diary-file "~/s/notes/diary.org")
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Then the following sequence

   M-x org-agenda RET a i d 3pm testing RET

gives me the following contents in diary.org, having started with an
empty file:

,----[ diary.org ]
| 
| * 2014
| ** 2014-05 May
| *** 2014-05-22 Thursday
| 
| ** 3pm testing
|    <2014-05-22 Thu>
`----

The versions of emacs-snapshot and git org are in my signature.  

I am indeed very puzzled.  I can only think that it must be a bug with
emacs itself?  Any hints on how to debug this would be most welcome as
it is somewhat annoying.  But not critical, on the other hand.  I just
have to remember to immediately add to * to the headline in the diary
file.

Thanks,
eric
