I figured out the main problem: After the upgrade, iCal had misappropriated the login information from my Google calendar account and copied it into the davical account - a pretty serious bug, IMHO. Other than that, it's working now - although a couple of things still seem fishy. Most importantly, they still haven't managed to get the privacy settings implemented so I'll keep flagging events with Sunbird if I don't want them to show up in everybody else's calendar...
