According to the docs on function "Hex2Dec" in Strutils:
"If S does not contain a valid hexadecimal value, an EConvertError exception will be
raised."
So, what profound lack of understanding am I suffering from? Anybody?
There's a bug in Hex2Dec implementation -- it returns 0 instead of
raising EConvertError. Here's a patch:
