I would not use mode=tile as it is very limited and does not do any
caching and does not support metatiles so it has a lat of labeling
issues. It was originally implemented to allow Google Maps API users to
use mapserver to generate overlay tiles, but mod_geocache does a better
job of that now and handles translating multiple different tile request
protocols to a single cache of tiles.
