Hey

This was fairly simple so I'll just reply to myself. I gave up on a
custom sort. The regular sort is good enough and better-behaved than
something that works from the current date.

This all falls in the admin helper.

$ cat app/helpers/admin_helper.rb
module AdminHelper
  def birthday_form_column(record, input_name)
    date_select :record, :birthday, :discard_year =>
true, :include_blank => true
  end

  def birthday_column(record)
    record.birthday ? "#{record.birthday.month}/
#{record.birthday.day}" : ""
  end
end
