Mike is right on his both answers. I've nothing to add, except that 
biblio, biblioitems,items are "old-style DB" and marc_* tables are "MARC 
style DB". If you're interested in this topic, look at C4/Biblio.pm, 
it's (i hope well) documented.

About MARC flavours : MARC21 and UNIMARC are tested at the moment, and 
"full" supported. I don't know why another MARC flavour wouldn't.
