     The kernel doesn't make any call to the glibc; it is the opposite: 
when running the new kernel, the userland invokes the glibc all the 
time, and this glibc makes system-calls to the new kernel, and there are 
some changes in the system-calls from kernel version to kernel version. 
This is why the libc must be recompiled with the proper kernel headers.
