Pippin:
We don't know it's the same anti-apparation charm. In fact, we
know it's different, because the Twins can apparate inside  GP,
but the charms on Hogwarts have to be altered for apparation
classes. 

There's an easy solution to Lupin's transformation in PoA.
The werewolf transformation can depend on the astronomical full 
moon, not on its visibility to the werewolf. The moon's appearance
from behind the cloud would be mere coincidence -- in fact it had
already been visible to TT! Harry and Hermione as they waited 
outside. 

Lupin should have realized his time was running short, but then
he forgot his potion also. He can be very disorganized.
