[Dx4win] Converted ADIF import sets eQSL flag

I don't care to participate in eQSL, so I've set my program preferences
to NOT set the eQSL Upload flag when a new entry is added to the log.
The vast majority of the data is add to my log is imported from contest
QSOs logged in N1MM+. At the end of each contest, I export the log in
ADIF format. I then use AD1C's very useful ADIF to DX4WIN conversion
utility (currently version 9.8) to generate a DX4WIN version 9 dxq file
that I import into DX4WIN.
Lately I have been noticing that every time I import such logs all QSOs
end up having the eQSL Upload flag set. I always have to run the DX4WIN
routine to clear these upload flags. I finally did a careful analysis of
the situation and determined that the eQSL flag is indeed being set on
import. I can't tell if the flag is being set by the conversion utility
or if the program is erroneously setting the flag on import. Has anyone
else encountered this problem in importing data from other sources?
