So does goodNewMap.xml exhibit the problem with custom types or badOldMap.xml? 
Sorry, a bit confused here. Also in the diff could you tell me the names of the 
columns that are causing you grief?

Persistence API is 99% compatible (1% is removed deprecated methods). The

Modeler or runtime? Runtime should just work (aside from the possibility of 
some buggy code).
