In my hands shelxc/d/e pipeline as it is implemented in ccp4 is working perfectly. After slowing structure yesterday using hkl2map I resolved it using ccp4 to have faster access to buccaneer or ARP/wARP. Needless to say that I used data I have measured in the form of output.sca from SCALEPACK. So it is probably really only converting of MTZ to SCA that induces problem.
