[Evolution] "Alarms for past events" bug still present in 1.2.2

["Peter O'Shea" <peter oshea analog com>]

Someone, I believe from the (awesome) development team, stated on the
list recently that the bug where alarms pop up for past events when
starting the calendar might/should be fixed in 1.2.2.  This bug is
covered by bugzilla 30231 (and perhaps others).

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be the case.  I tested on RH 8.0 with
evolution 1.2.2 and dependencies obtained via red-carpet, and also on
sparc solaris 8 with evolution and dependencies compiled from source. 
In both cases, when I bring up the calendar, I get alarm dialog boxes
popping up for multiple events from previous days.

This is the most annoying bug!  It makes evolution look like it's lost
its mind.  

Otherwise, of course, evolution is awesome and I can't wait to try the
first public 1.3.x release.
