I'm not quite sure that I accept that.
The way I work with BCB6 ring fences all of the add-on packages so that I can
simply move from the current stable version of a package to a new one and back.
I've dropped back to the stable IBO setup and that is working fine, so the
problem must be contained fully in the newer build? I never did like the way BCB
would blindly destroy a fully functional package with a newer one, something
which windows is just bad at anyway, so over the years I've developed a means of
managing this which does seem to work.

Do you have an older copy of the code that does run on BCB6? Beyond Compare does
a very good job picking up the differences between versions of the code base and
a fresh pair of eyes might spot something?
