That's just a file that calibre's reader adds to provide support for bookmarks without having to maintain them in a separate database. Perfectly safe to delete it.

and checked that the file validated, which it did. So in theory, I think, that should be OK for iBooks - but instead I'm now getting "Invalid URI in NCX file".

Could you post the epub's .ncx file? (It only contains the chapter names, so there shouldn't be a copyright issue.) ePubcheck does basic link-checking, so that shouldn't be an issue, but there might be some odd character in there causing a problem.
Quite a lot of problems people have reported end up boiling down to character-encoding issues, which is why I'd recommend using Sigil to do the editing instead, as it's strict about enforcing UTF-8 in the current version.
