[missing-sync-palmos-talk] iCal, Palm Off by One Day

I thought I finally had this new version of MS working with iApps (no more
exceptions, Null errors, etc).  Once I imported everything from  Entourage
into the iApps first (after reinitializing iCal and Address Book by deleting
their data files), then synced to the Palm by overwriting (and unregistering
the sync clients), it appeared to be working pretty well (Address Book, iCal
Events and To Dos, and MemoPad).

I noticed today though that a repeating event (my niece's birthday -- all
day event repeated every year), which was 12/5 in Entourage, was 12/6 in
iCal but 12/5 on the Palm.  I could have attributed that to a glitch in
iCal's import from Entourage, but the Palm was overwritten with iCal data,
so it should have also had 12/6 if that were the case.

Subsequent syncs appear to work correctly, except that this event never gets
changed on the Palm or in iCal (I would have expected it to end up on both
devices twice -- once with each date).  MS seems to think that this event is
synced, though clearly it's not.
