After talking with the upstream developers, I tried out Evolution 3.0.
It's a one-way transition from a data-perspective, so backup if you plan
to downgrade back to 2.32, but the good news is that 3.0 exists in
upstream Debian experimental so it was easy to do once the apt sources
were in place. I was able to meet binary dependencies in Natty, so I
didn't even have to rebuild the packages.
My dpkg output is included. Also attached is a screenshot of this
problem in 3.0. In the GUI it appears to timeout at the same place in a
consistent manner with a 3.0 specific error message.

Since the problem persists in evolution 3.0, hopefully we can keep the
focus on 2.32 and what has changed between 10.10 and 11.04 to introduce
this problem. Rodrigo's comment has me thinking the dBus 1.4.0 to
1.4.6 is somehow related.
I suspect android phone users with large Google addressbooks are going
to start tripping on this bug following the 11.04 release.
