It should run perfectly well without recompilation even if you had
rebooted in a new (and much lateest) kernel version. Since LTP talks to
kernel only through the GLIBC, AIO and other user space libraries, so,
until they are intact in the system, LTP will just run fine. Now, how
the user space libraries will interact with the new kernel is a
different ballgame altogether.
