The only reason to re-install the C++ libraries is because some of the
files in them are longer than eight characters.  If you were
previously running in an LFN=N environment, you probably have the
short file named files installed.  If you re-install with LFN=Y,
you'll have the long file names.  If you read the FAQ, it has
instructions for making sure you install it such that it will work
with both LFN=N and LFN=Y.
