Since I wrote that, it's been updated and now says "effective June 28

That would seem to be the case, according to this:
http://www.arrl.org/blog/DXCC%20Dialog/45 which says in part: "The
DXCC "Start Date," the earliest date that QSOs will count for the
new entity (which is also the "Event Date, the date of the event
that gave rise to the addition) will be 0001Z on the day following
that on which Montenegro's UN membership is formalized. "
Also, this: http://www.un.org/News/ossg/hilites.shtml from the UN
web's site would seem to make it pretty official.

If I understand this correctly, #336 comes alive at 0001 UTC
tomorrow. Is this correct?
