If you mean with "processor type" the CPU (e.g. arm, i386, x86_64):
the LCL ppu files are put into different output directories for each
target cpu. So changing the target cpu does *not* trigger a recompile of
the LCL.

If you mean the target processor (e.g. pentium II, pentium IV) then a
switch triggers a recompile, because they share the same output
directory.

Yes, open the package lcl, in the package editor click on options /
package options / ide integration / Manual compilation.
