I'm parsing a calendar with a few events similar to:

BEGIN:VEVENT

Both of these events throw the following error, presumably because they're before unix epoch.

(CaseClauseError) no case clause matching: {:error, "Expected end of input at line 1, column 23"}
lib/icalendar/util/deserialize.ex:88: ICalendar.Util.Deserialize.parse_attr/2

Any thoughts on how to handle such old events?
