Sorry, I don't get it. I am suggeting to add the name of the actual file (the
one in diary-file) to the mode alist. Looking for possible matches is a
(small) optimisation. Why do we need a completely reliable matching code?

In fact, both M-x diary and M-x appt-activate do load calendar, so it seems
that any usage of diary, appointment or calendar functions would do the right
thing, as long as the diary file is found after that. Well, better than
nothing, maybe. In principle, after adding the hook, one could check whether
any buffer is finding the diary file and change its mode...
