The remaining rrules not fixed by #3229 contain weekdays with frequencies, like BYDAY=-1SU. These are currently not really supported by the icalendar library. Because of that, I decided to block this issue on collective/icalendar#749.

If we really want to fix these edge cases before, we can implement this ourselves.

Update: The pr at icalendar is now merged. Unfortunately, it contained a breaking change, so there is probably no update coming soon.
