The 64-bit integer libraries are separate libraries if you
need to have all your integers be 64-bit (8 byte) long as
opposed to the default 32-bit integers (4 byte). If you are
installing on a machine with a MIPS R5000 processor, then the
64-bit integer libraries are not available.

Not installing these libraries should have no affect or prejudice
your new installation.
