I'm not seeing anything as repeatable as this although I do occasionally see 
calendar start up briefly and then crash and then work fine next time.  I 
have not put any effort into debugging this although I was wondering if it is 
something to do with the amount of time calendar takes to start when sqlite 
has a journal file to apply (I tend to see this after gpesyncd has crashed 
leaving lots of unapplied updates).  I was wondering if Hildon decides to 
kill it because it isn't responding or something?  But that doesn't explain 
your experience.

When I want to see what is happening I start up an Xwindow and just run 
gpe-calendar from there to see if I can see any useful error messages.  I 
don't know of any way to get logs from the normal execution.
