Ah, that does make some sense. However, the calendar has a timezone
associated with it that it uses for every other event, and when
looking at graphical displays of the calendar, it knows to put all-day
events on the correct day (and not at a weird hour offset). Is there a
way to specify that I want the all-day events to be in the same time
zone as the normal events? I tried using the czt parameter, and
specifying the start-min and start-max with a timezone, and neither
seemed to work.

It seems to me that the confusion stems from that timezone issue, but
the actual bug could be fixed. When would anyone want to see all-day
events for UTC when they are looking at a local calendar?

Thanks!
