Using remind 3.01.05 on FreeBSD 6.1, I get an error (actually, I get the
help synopsis) with remind ~/.reminders 11 Nov 2009.

Admittedly, this is a build that I installed myself; the remind from
ports (3.00.24) works properly.  However, the configure script and the
compilation proceeded without errors.  Handbuilt reminds (3.01.05) on
Slackware and Ubuntu work fine.  Is anyone else running remind current
stable on FreeBSD?  Do you see this quirk?

Thanks,

        JL
