After looking at this, it turns out that the simple fix (going  
through the GET path for webcal: URLs) unmasked another problem. Due  
to some of the URL mangling we're doing, we drop any query/parameters  
from the URL we need to fetch. That leads to a different, but equally  
incomprehensible failure as before, both for the original IRC user  
and other real-world cases I've seen.

Since addressing the secondary bug would involve more extensive (and  
possibly risky) changes, I'm only going to make the full fix in 0.7.  
Thanks, everyone, for your helpful comments.
