Keeping the header files around may lead to some obscure problems later that are less obvious to debug than wrong library versions. And even if you removed the header files, there's more left like for example the files installed for pkg-config. > In any case, I have backups of those files, which is how I'm able to > run my email client right now.

Either you go for replacing the 2.2 versions which means you should take care of uninstalling them completely. But I would not recommened fiddling with any files in your /usr prefix. You can go for a parallel installation instead and adapt your build environment so that the new libraries and their header files are being used. To do that, you usually set the CFLAGS, LDFLAGS, LD_LIBRARY_PATH and PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variables. Since you said you aren't clueless, you should be able to proceed from here...
