I checked in my c:\program files\Mapinfo\Professional\mapinfow.prj, and
this CRS is listed as follows:

"--- Netherlands Coordinate Systems ---"
"Netherlands National System\p28992", 20, 109, 7, 5.387638889,
52.156160556, 0.9999079, 155000, 463000

so MapInfo knows that the EPSG code 28992 is associated with it, and
this should be matched in mitab_spatialref.cpp as

Projection Type = 20 (SRS_PT_STEREOGRAPHIC)
Datum = 109 (Netherlands_Bessel)
Units = 7 (SRS_UL_METER)

SRS_PP_CENTRAL_MERIDIAN = 5.387638889
SRS_PP_LATITUDE_OF_ORIGIN = 52.156160556
SRS_PP_SCALE_FACTOR = 0.9999079
SRS_PP_FALSE_EASTING = 155000
SRS_PP_FALSE_NORTHING = 463000

Can you try to replace 
DATUM["Amersfoort",
with
DATUM["Netherlands_Bessel"
in the prj file and see if it works?
