Perhaps, but FYI in this case we're talking RHEL5'ish kernel (so 2.6.18
plus lots of backports, and more), and strace was built with kernel
headers for the same kernel that it is run with (RHEL5'ish in both cases).

It has already been (re)built with what I think are proper kernel headers.

Almost, except that Vasily's report was for RHEL6'ish kernel, whereas
we've reverted to RHEL5'ish for now (and the strace build is RHEL5'ish).
So "rebuild it" does not appear to be the fix for us.
