I think you misdiagnosed your problem.  As far as I know, types t1 (in your
example) and INTEGER are not assignment compatible, at least when it
comes to parameter passing.  In other words, if you used "VAR P: t1" or
"CBR(INTEGER(V))", the conversion should have worked.

I've also used the Hamburg compiler.  I don't recall having any problems
with type conversion.  I must admit though, that I also don't recall
trying something like what you did in your example.
