Description of Problem:
For meetings scheduled before daylight savings time (before April 2)
that are recurring and continue after daylight savings time has taken
affect the meeting times are off by one hour.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Prior to DST accept a meeting invite like one for a meeting occuring
at 8:00 - 8:30 AM CST.

END:VEVENT
END:VCALENDAR

2. Set system calendar forward to a date after daylight savings took
effect, meeting will now occur at 9:00 - 9:30 AM in the local timezone.


Actual Results:
Calendar entries are 1 hour off.

Expected Results:
Calendar entries do not shift 1 hour.

How often does this happen?
Half of my calendar entries are like this.  I will probably need to drop
evolution for corporate use because I can't affort to miss meetings
because I thought they were happening an hour later than they really
are.
