Please note that compiling the RTL or packages with different modes than
the default is not considered supported.

Please report as a bug.

Please report as a bug.

Did you report this as a bug back then? If not, please do so.

Again we don't support compiling the RTL and packages with anything than
the default mode.

This is compatible with Delphi and is required to allow overloads as
noticed by this bug report that triggered this change:
https://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=29444

If it is inconvenient for you, then use PtrInt/PtrUInt.
