I found what I firmly believe is a bug in vcal, written by Mike Essex
and distributed in comp.sources.whatever some time ago.
Maybe this problem was already mentioned ; in that case I missed the article.
Here is a context diff. The bug is quite obvious, and does strange
things to message number 79 in the appointments file.
