OK, so I found the reason for this. There's a bug in the owncloud calendar importer that adds an empty VALUE= label to DTEND https://github.com/owncloud/calendar/issues/991 However, this doesn't excuse evolution's handling of it, because every other caldav implementation silently ignores this whereas we mangle it into a potentially unreadable timezone and then drop the event. The mangling seems to occur as part of the back end caching and is likely the fault of libical. I'll see if I can work out how to fix it.
