this happens on my redhat 7.1 systems when recompiling, because ldconfig
failes to re-symlink libc.so.6 to the libc-2.2.3.so, and libc-2.2.2.so,
which is what it's symlinked to, obviously has no GLIBC_2.2.3 symbol.
try rm'ing libc.so.6 and recreating it as a link to the new libc-2.2.3.so.
(but of course if the library is screwed up your system will be hosed,
make sure you have static file utilities around somewhere to point the
link back at libc-2.2.2.so if things break).
