I owe the Akonadi team a partial apology (but only this time). The issue was my fault. I hand-edited files in my DAV archives and deleted the UUID from one of the entries, which my DAV server doesn't like (even though the property is optional). The missing UUID caused the DAV server to throw HTTP 500 errors.
Akonadi still bears _some_ responsibility for breaking silently instead of being explicit about the HTTP 500 error, and the DAV server bears some responsibility for making me search too long to find the source of the 500 error.
