This appears to be a direct result of the problem I'm having with
meeting invites not showing up (bug 58077).  To get around it, I've been
doing a "Save As" of the mail, taking the mail headers out of the file,
and importing it.  Problem is that - as shown below - the DESCRIPTION
for the VALARM is just set to "Reminder" in the meeting request.  So
it's not exactly an Evolution problem - although maybe it should make
sure that the VALARM DESCRIPTION includes the VEVENT SUMMARY.
