Here is a bit of online discussion, last updated 2009, mostly siding
with the "date of situation," but allowing for both:
http://www.acsu.buffalo.edu/~dbertuca/maps/cat/schedule_g.html and
http://www.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/class_g.pdf . From that latter link (LC):
" The date in a map call number is always the date of the
situation, except when a history (S+) cutter has been used, in which
case the date in the call number is the date of publication."
(footnote 1).
