libical doesn't compile successfully on WinXP using gcc

The error I got was:
 ...libical/src/libicalss/icalcalendar.c
line 96: error too many arguments to function 'mkdir'

mvl made a patch that removed libicalss from the Makefiles as a workaround

mvl's workaround patch

so far, it seems we really don't need libicalss anymore. We do our own fileIO
now.
There might be actaul useful stuff in there though, like searching, freebusy
helpers etc.
So, i'm not sure if disabling this is a good idea

We need a good free/busy story, and soon, but we can revisit icalss when we
have one. r=shaver

if we decide we need icalspanlist.* we can always only compile that. (spanlist
does some freebusy helper things)
