Are you sure that the lxml version is the only difference? No (partial) system upgrades in between? Still using the same XCode release?

lxml 3.2.3 still builds for you when you do exactly the same steps, right?

I wouldn't know any changes between 3.2.3 and 3.2.4 that could impact the build under MacOS-X.
