Please show step by step instructions to reproduce the issue starting
from "emacs -Q".  It is hard to look into an issue without such a
recipe, as the details are usually important.

Thanks.

For me they appear both with "All" and with "General" if I invoke
holiday-list.

Also, I don't have commit 8aae5fbaf29ee3d845e2bb40ef728765a2246e35 in
my clone of the Emacs Git repository.  Which Git repository are you
using to build Emacs?

I think the one on the GNU FTP site is such a build:

  https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/windows/emacs-28/

Do you have libgccjit installed and GCC and Binutils on PATH?

Like I said: I cannot reproduce this on Emacs 30 or 29, so I'm not
sure what's going on.  Maybe something related to your locale?

Other than that, I can only suggest debugging the code with Edebug.

Maybe it's a problem with the Emacs 30 build you used?  It isn't a
build from the Emacs repository, so perhaps it has some changes that
cause this?

Can someone else please reproduce this and investigate?

I too can't reproduce the issue in emacs -Q.

But this all looks like the difference in behavior one would expect
between an emacs where "holidays.el" is already loaded vs. is not
already loaded:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
;; (require 'holidays) ; try with and without

(setq holiday-general-holidays
      '((holiday-fixed 1 1 "Capodanno")
        (holiday-fixed 5 1 "1 Maggio")
        (holiday-fixed 4 25 "Liberazione")
        (holiday-fixed 6 2 "Festa Repubblica")))
#+end_src

What does evaluating

  (featurep 'holidays)

and

  calendar-holidays

in a fresh emacs -Q (where it doesn't work) return (before setting or
evaluating anything else)?

What evals to nil - `calendar-holidays'?

But what I wanted to know was the evaluation result of
`calendar-holidays' in your emacs -Q.

Thanks.  This is also as expected.  So I don't have any idea why you are
seeing this.

In the meantime I tried your recipe in a build with native compilation
enabled, but I still can't reproduce it.
