It is not *required*. It is optional, and you only need it if
you wish to build the libgs.so library (which is used by only
a couple of packages).

You don't have to "go back". You can install both of them in
parallel without any worries. They exist perfectly fine
together, and don't have any conflicts.

No.

I wish I could help you further, but the rest of your issues have
to do with building on the 64bit platform. I do know that I've
seen a patch for GTK-1.2.10 floating around the CLFS list. You'll
probably need it.

However, perhaps you can reconsider even your need for gtk-1.2.10.
