Kris,
Thank you very much for identifying this.  I even found that I had a
problem with my data model because of this issue.

Thanks,

Lance

Evidently event.* contains a field called calendar name and you're
getting
bitten by this change (from the 508 changelog):

     The JDBC spec says that when you have two duplicately named
     columns in a ResultSet, a search by name should return the
     first one. Previously our code was returning the second match.
