Hmm, so you are right. The 2004 DVD credits may have been a holdover from the 1997 release, since they updated the credits to included individuals who worked on the 1997 version (although not the 2004 version I think, which is maybe why they left the 1997 theatrical credits as is). The other materials though, clearly state 1977 only, so I don't know what is up with that. It may have to do with a loophole regarding derivative works, that promotional and descriptive materials use the earliest copyright/release-date. Otherwise, they would technically have to have had a 1981 copyright date in there too, at some point, right?
