Yes, very interesting.

There is a change that is in HEAD which works around a bug in iCal to do
with inconsistent line-endings in a resource. The problem can happen
from some clients when the VTIMEZONE (e.g.) has newline endings and the
VEVENT has CRLF line endings.

Applying the following patch to AWL may resolve the problem for you:

Regards,
Andrew.
