AFAICS, the edb tuning wizard has not (yet) been updated to support
PostgreSQL 8.4. The hints it gives are for 8.3 and earlier. It would
probably be a good idea if they gave a warning for that, but I take it
they don't :-)
There may be other issues as well, so read up on the documentation for
anything else it recommends to change.
As for these two values, you can just ignore them - they are tuned
dynamically on 8.4.
