1) It makes it consistent with the CONSTANT_POOL_ADDRESS_P case

2b) mode is only used if val is used.
2c) max_internal_pool_size is the maximum total constant pool size that
    we're still have to emit, and it shrinks with each constant we examine,
    no matter if we do place it in an extra constant pool or if we find that
    we don't need to after all.

    The fact that the way this is used incorrectly is IMHO a separate
    matter; the most straightforward fix would be to add another variable
    that accumulates the size of the currently constructed pool's size,
    which is cleared whenever the pool is written out, and taken into
    account for the distance computations.

3) You added the code just two years ago, so you should have a general idea
   what it is doing.
