No, I think that you are not missing anything.  Currently you cannot
do what you want.

It seems to me that the code used by diary and calendar for these
things is unnecessarily complicated (duplicating code) such that, in
particular, it becomes difficult to feed things such as BBDB
anniversaries into the algorithm for marking the calendar.

I have filed this as GNU Emacs bug#15987.

Thank you Roland.  BBDB 3 is working out quite well. :)

Thank you Uwe and Kevin for your replies as well.

I still do not understand, 

I use 
(require 'bbdb-anniv)
(add-hook 'list-diary-entries-hook #'bbdb-include-anniversaries)

In my 2.35 bbdb version and I do see the anniversaries marked in the
calendar. Are you saying this is not possible in vs 3?
