When did the broken URIs start? I thought it was in the 2.0 series, in which case this patch is needed to ensure smooth upgrades. (The distros would be forced to pick it up anyway.) Because the broken URI is used in finding the pieces in ~/.evolution, losing it could be a major inconvenience. It would probably be good to see this patch applied with a /* historical mistake, should never happen, but it did. */ comment attached to it. My 2¢.
