Seems similar to/related to: https://gist.github.com/hjuutilainen/7544223

I'm not exactly sure why those messages appear in the system log, but it seems to have something to do with the changes in Mavericks in how the system enforces app privileges (like access to calendars.) It might be that Apple has not considered command-line applications that are not app bundles, or that there is some new API such programs need to use that I'm not aware of.

Or, like the Fantastical developers have apparently said (from that Gist you posted), it's a bug in Mavericks' calendar frameworks.

Closing as “Won't Fix”

It's really quite excessive. I think apple should at least be made aware of it. it affects it seems anything using the old calendar store framework.
