It's no problem to have the BBDB anniversaries show up in the Org
agenda.  In fact, I noticed after upgrading to BBDB 3 and adding
bbdb-anniv-diary-entries to diary-list-entries-hook the
%%(org-bbdb-anniversaries) line in an Org file isn't necessary to have
these anniversaries show up in the agenda.  Cool.  Of course, they show
up in the fancy diary display as well when you hit 'd' on the day from
the calendar.

The only piece missing, from my perspective, is that these days aren't
marked in the calendar like they would be for an equivalent anniversary
created in the diary.  Am I missing a function that could be added to a
calendar hook to have these BBDB anniversaries mark the calendar?

Thanks for all the feedback,

Joseph
