Jeremy, If you just want to use the server and connect to it to perform queries and maintain it, just the server and clients should suffice. If you want to link your own C programs against mysql or measure the exact performance on your hardware, you may want the others.
By the fact that you're asking this question (no offence intended), I think you'll probably just want the server and client programs.
