Yes, that's it. Your own copy of the file is used instead of the more
recent (and extended) copy from /usr/share. Therefore the new required
macro is missing.
With hindsight I probably should have put the new macro into a separate
file. It is related to calendar data, but not the import/export mangling
done by the other two in 11calendar-profile.xml. A user might
legitimately replace those without caring about the compare script.
However, splitting into more files does not solve the general problem:
if a user replaces .xml files, he basically runs a patched version of
SyncEvolution and needs to take care to stay up-to-date.
For example, right now in master I found and fixed an issue in
11calendar-profile.xml/VCALENDAR_INCOMING_SCRIPT for vCalendar 1.0. This
may or not be relevant for you.

If I read that discussion right, then the change that you have in your
copy in your file is also in the 1.2 version of 11calendar.xml, so you
can remove your private copy and still have the desired behavior.
diff -c /home/ja/.config/syncevolution-xml/scripting/11calendar.xml \
/usr/share/syncevolution/xml/datatypes/11calendar-profile.xml
will tell you what the differences are.
