The A-type has a maximum oscillator frequency of 20 MHz (instead of 10 MHz).
There are some small timing differences, of which the most important seems to be: MCLR low puls width, erase/program cycle time.
see this table:

this link contains the details about the fifferences between the 16f84 and 16f84AA

This guy is sharing from his experience regarding the right combination of the PIC-type, the programmer (hardware) and the programming software.

Take a look at his software page concerning, among other design consideration, to write/erase cycle time and Microchip official answer.

What is the Ghost location?

Excuse my ignorance, but where did you heard about ghost location ?
