2.2.4 fixes an important bug that screwed with GCC3's head.  I can't
find the details right now :-|.  This bug is only in 2.2.3, as far as
I know.  GCC *might* compensate for this, but only if you build
against 2.2.3 (feature checks are done against build system, it's hard
to test host arch on build system), so it requires you to *use* at
least the first fixed version (2.2.4).

And they're for different architectures?

The above might be it.  Recompile ARM libc -- 2.3.2 is out now. :)
