C doesn't have calling conventions; those are dictated by ABI's. A Pascal compiler can easily use the same ABI as a C compiler.
The layout of a process doesn't really do anything that helps C.
The C-specific considerations creep into API's when clients are required to prepare, or to parse, memory described as a C structure.
C helps here by dictating that the members of a struct may not be reordered. The rules that compilers use for aligning structure members tend to be very similar and straightforward.
