What are you trying to do that's so sensitive to the -10 that it won't accept -3 or a recompile against the updated 2.4.20 kernel? Binary drivers?

Stupid VPN software.  Checkpoint Firewall-1.

And, it *might* work. I don't know. The point is that it requests a specific version of the kernel. After I establish that it works, then I can establish that it works with later versions.

Once I get this encapsulated, I expect to dump it into a VMWare machine and proxy the stupid VPN so that I can use an OS that isn't 6 years old.

Of course, the only reason I have to even worry about this is because Linux finds it beneath themselves to worry about silly things like kernel API compatibility. Otherwise, I'd just make the jump to .20 and be done with it.
