It's in the updates tree for i386:
eg
http://mirror.centos.org/centos-5/5/updates/i386/RPMS/glibc-common-2.5-123.el5_11.1.i386.rpm
There's no i386 version in the x86_64 tree because it doesn't have any
librarie, just binaries (eg /usr/bin/getent) and non-architecture files
(eg locale, defaults).
(Basically, don't install this on a 64bit machine!!)
