I ran in the same problem with planner-mode when I upgraded to Emacs
22.  (I upgraded from Fedora Core 6 to Fedora 7.)

The problem is mentioned here:

  http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/PlannerModeQuickStart

   | Note: There is a bug in Planner that makes it unusable with Emacs
   | 22. This bug is fixed in the latest development version of
   | Planner, and will be fixed in the upcoming release of Planner.

I upgraded planner to the latest development snapshot, and the problem
went away.  I haven't bothered to look what the fix was.  If you'd
like to find out for yourself, you can diff the latest release and the
latest development snapshot:

 $ wget http://download.gna.org/planner-el/planner-3.41.tar.gz
 $ wget http://mwolson.org/static/dist/planner-latest.tar.gz

Or ask Michael Olson directly.

Actually, maybe it's not the same problem.  I just googled for it,
and here it is:

Worth a shot anyway.
