Sigh, that's what I suspected from reading the code; thanks for
confirming.

Right, no filters.  Actually I've been copying events into a local
calendar (as in creating an ical file from the events in the local
caldav cache) ... what do you know, not only do they appear, but the
missing equivalent in the caldav calendar also appears.  So I'm thinking
this is either some sort of iterator problem in the data server itself,
or in the actual evolution front end.

I will if I can find one which genuinely fails ... as in it won't appear
even when placed into a separate ical file.
