Hmm.  I actually installed 2.2.3 as a Debian package previously so I'm 
not running 2.2.2 at all
So now I'm very puzzled as to why this GLIBC_2.2.3 reference isn't 
defined...

$ ls -l libc.so.6
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           13 Jun 26 08:43 libc.so.6 -> 
libc-2.2.3.so
$ ls -l libc-2.2.3.so
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root      4800046 Jun 26 09:01 libc-2.2.3.so
$ ls -l libpthread*
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root       445896 Jun 26 09:03 libpthread-0.9.so
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root       106051 Jun 25 12:33 libpthread-2.2.3.so
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           19 Jun 25 12:31 libpthread.so -> 
libpthread-2.2.3.so
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           19 Jun 26 08:43 libpthread.so.0 
-> libpthread-2.2.3.so

Checking, the libc I built this morning is there and linked properly.

I did manage to screw my libc BTW. I simply booted from a rescue floppy 
disk then a
root floppy disk, mounted my partition in /mnt then went to /mnt/lib to 
do the
appropriate fixes. Would have been nice to know about sln tho...
