You should do the following to set Lazarus 0.9.24 with FPC 2.2.2rc1

I will supposed you used the standard windows installer which also
installs FPC for Lazarus 0.9.24 and you used a stand alone FPC only
installer for FPC 2.2.2rc1

Go to the Environment options dialog and change the compiler and make
paths to the 2.2.2rc1 compiler

Go to Tools --> Configure build lazarus

Go to the advanced page

Set everything to None and LCL to Clean+Build.

Click the Build button.

If LCL compiled successfully you are all set.

As you see, you don't need to rebuild the entire IDE, just LCL and
this is good, because then you don't risk the stability of your IDE
and it is quicker to just build LCL.
