I use basically the same folder structure as yours. I have had simlar
problems, except my folders ended up in the wrong place - my problems
would all be attributed by Adobe to "user error", but attributed by me
to "user interface error". In the "Import Photos" dialogue, if I chose
Copy to:2008" and
 "Organize by date:2005/2005-12-17"
it created a new folder for 2008 under my original 2008 directory.
Not sure if this relates to  your problem.
