I would suggest manually installing a 3.2 or later kernel (with 'apt-get
install linux-image-xxxxxx') and rebooting **before** upgrading libc6 or
anything else.

if the updated libc6 has a hard requirement on kernel >= 3.2 then
upgrading libc6 before rebooting to the new kernel is bound to lead to
problems...quite possibly very significant and difficult-to-fix problems
as pretty much everything (including apt and dpkg and bash/dash and
coreutils and more) depend on libc6.
