I'll say that everything given to you on the disc is guaranteed to work, and that's your best bet.

Other than that, everything else is at your own risk. Kevin has links to libraries for both the 2.4 and 3.0 C18 compiler. My guess about the IDE is that it shouldn't make too much of a difference. If you can get the configuration to work, go for it.
Disclaimer: the above paragraph is my best guess, which is untested and I was not on a FRC team during the IFI days. I can't guarantee that anything other than the disc which was given in the KOP will work as you want it to.

EDIT: Yeah, what Mark said
