It has nothing to do with @CD or selection sets.

Rather, it has to do with attempting to put an out-of-range date into
a 2-digit-year date field.

In this case, it means you don't have PFCMARK set to a reasonable value.
("Reasonable", in this case, means anything which would permit the year
2007 to be "07".  Depending on your particular needs, you need to determine
the "right" value somewhere from 8 to 99.)
