Movable OMITs are surprising.  From the man page:

    In general, use SCANFROM as shown for safe movable OMITs.   The  amount
    you  should  scan  back by (7 days in the example above) depends on the
    number of possible consecutive OMITted days that may occur, and on  the
    range of the movable holiday.  Generally, a value of 7 is safe.

Regards,

David.
