You do not need to concatenate .tpr files.  Analysis tools use the contents of 
.tpr files in various ways, sometimes just for names, masses, charges, etc. 
Some programs need a reference coordinate file, and the coordinates can be taken 
from a .tpr file.  If you've been doing your simulations in chunks of 10 ns by 
extending via tpbconv, the contents of each of your .tpr files are identical 
except for the number of steps.
