Even if you set TP mode in your own unit that won't change the mode of 
the getopts unit. FPC can use units with different modes without any 
problems.

Also scanning condition expressions is nearly completely independant of 
the mode (one of the only exceptions is support for special MacPas 
directives in MacPas mode).
