That's highly broken because his libc was compiled against 2.2
headers. You must never use different headers in
/usr/include/Pasm,linux} then those your libc was compiled against.

While I understand this problem, this line of reasoning simply does
not apply for headers that libc/glibc/whatever are agnostic about.
