I narrowed the problem up to this. The reminders do show up in advance as 
required IF in Edit Reminder dialog box "Repeat reminder" IS NOT CHECKED. 
As soon I check the box, no matter what values are selected there, the 
reminders STOP showing up in advance again.

Should I report a bug? Or it's hopeless - I've heard some bugs are 
sitting over there for years.
