The last weeks, since I'm working from home, I've been converting a lot of our 
Delphi 6 projects. I only use the convertor to get a Lazarus project from a 
dpr. All other changes I revert. The convertor breaks more than it fixes. Like 
in your case we still release our software build by Delphi. Once I have the 
lpi, I never use the convertor again. So it cannot touch defines and such.
