This one does not, because the CLOSED time stamp
in the example also contains a time, while you comparison value is taken to
be at midnight.

FWIW I'm using version 6.17b. Am I just using this format incorrectly?
My apologies. I recently installed 6.17b, but to the wrong lisp
target directory (i.e. so I was effectively using an older
version of the code, 6.12b I think). After installing it in the
proper directory this works fine.

:-) Yes, many problems come from running one version and reading the
manual of another version :-)
I am glad it works. Even though, looking at your post, I am wondering
if it would be useful
to limit the comparison to date-only if the comparison value is a
date without a time...

That's probably a good idea to avoid confusion, though I'm not
sure how often one searches for a specific day with these. For
closed items I tend to use a timeline display, but was looking at
using a range of dates instead when I noticed the problem. The
only reason I tried a single date was to produce another data
point after I noticed that the '=' seemed to fail.
