Mike,
According to Adobe Help for InDesign CS3, no conversion should take place:

Illustrator and InDesign support a safe CMYK workflow by default. As a result, when you open or import a CMYK image with an embedded profile, the application ignores the profile and preserves the raw color numbers. If you want your application to adjust color numbers based on an embedded profile, change the CMYK color policy to Preserve Embedded Profiles in the Color Settings dialog box. You can easily restore the safe CMYK workflow by changing the CMYK color policy back to Preserve Numbers (Ignore Linked Profiles).

For example, If the ID color settings are set to preserve embedded profiles, and the embedded profile in an image differs from the default CMYK working space, when printing letting ID determine colors, there will be a conversion despite having "preserve CMYK numbers" checked.
