It can be helpfull if you want to clone a system 1:1, then you can copy the
cached data together with the real data and the configuration, so you don't have
to load the data again from the sources (e.g. groupware server).

Your old address book from pre KDE 4.4 times was the vCard file under
$HOME/.kde/share/apps/kabc/std.vcf, which is provided by the 'VCard File Resource'
now (as you mentioned below)

      ^^^ this one... if not, check whether it really points to that path!

But actually you should remove this resource as well after copying the contacts
from there to the 'Personal Contacts' resource (which should have been done by
the migration tool... why the heck doesn't it work....).
