When looking for RPM's from CentOS and similar distributions, or for
RPM's that can be ported to CentOS and RHEL, http://rpm.pbone.net/ is
your dear, dar friend.

That said, doing an in-place update to glibc-2.6.x is *begging* for
pain. CentOS 6 will have glibc-2.12.x, and a set of compatibility
libraries so older CentOS 5/RHEL 5 tools will work. And if you're in a
rush, you could work with Fedora, which is noticeably ahead of CentOS
and RHEL on most packages, but is not as industry tested and stable.
