In V7 of BP it's used for the windows stack frame. 

Interestingly, TP V7 accepts it on the command line whereas TP6 doesn't.

Has no effect on code generation for real mode programs in V6 or V7.

Perhaps it was intended that V6 of TP was originally going to offer
Windows programming ala TPW1.0 ?

PS Unless you post to b.p.tp via forums.borland.com then TeamB will not
see your post.
