There are only two recent commits against org-icalendar. The second one
mentions org-print-icalendar-entries, so I bet that's the culprit :-)

For future reference, if you can reproduce the problem with *uncompiled* 
org-mode,
the backtrace is going to be much more readable (no byte code hieroglyphics). 
Just
something to keep in mind.
