after running valgrind again with --leak-check=full and
--show-reachable=yes, it appears that a great deal of the
formally still reachable, but probably quite lost memory originates from
e_cal_backend_cache_get_components() (e-cal-backend-cache.c line 473
specifically, which calls icalparser_parse_string())
It seems this function is identical in SVN
