More questions on Mode Delphi.

1. Does Mode Delphi simply allow Delphi syntax to be compiled, or does it
also affect the code generation, like data structures, pointer handling,
parameter handling / calling conventions, stack frames etc?

2. When Mode Delphi is applied to a project, ie the .dpr, does it affect
the whole project, or does each project require its own mode delphi
statement?

3. Can it be switched on and off within the same unit, ie some procedures
and data structures use it, some don't?
