I compiled e2fsprogs with and without any headers installed, because I
thinks it should always use automatically the headers inside uclibc dirs,
correct?
I compiled it on a 2.2 system too (which has never seen 2.4.x), just to be
sure.

So far, I always tried wih uclibc compiled on a 2.4 system (Red Hat 7.3)
with kernel source pointing to a 2.2.19 tree; I verified version.h inside
uclibc installed/runtime/devel tree is 2.2.x.

I tried compiling uclibc too on a 2.2 system (Red Hat 6.x) but it fails due
to ld not supporting -init.
