Turned out that line caused all the strange behaviour.
force_char_pref("calendar.timezone.local",
"/mozilla.org/20070129_1/Europe/Berlin");
What about using the simpler format:

lock_pref("calendar.timezone.local", "Europe/Berlin");

Thank you for the hint daniel! lock_pref did not work but the simpler format for the timezone did.

Upgraded to thunderbird 17.0.7 ESR meanwhile and tested again with

force_char_pref("calendar.timezone.local","Europe/Berlin");

instead of

force_char_pref("calendar.timezone.local", 
"/mozilla.org/20070129_1/Europe/Berlin");

and this works.

The variables from custom-preferences.js however seem to be read only once.
If i change it to

force_char_pref("calendar.timezone.local","[Some other Timezone]");

Europe/Berlin still gets forced.
