Kylix 3 help on TrueBoolStrs variable specifies:
<quote>
When using the BoolToString function, true values are converted to the
first string of the list. When using the StrToBool function, any string
in the list is converted to true.
</quote>
The same for FalseBoolStrs variable, of course.
Apparently the mechanism is intended to convert from human
understandable or localized strings to standardized TRUE/FALSE strings.
The opposite of what you needed. No wonder it fails for you.
