Do you know why?  As in, what features or fixes are required?  If not, I 
think John's question is pertinent.  If you're building a binaries to 
distribute, your best bet might actually be to produce multiple builds 
targeting specific Linux distributions. Alternately, some specific LSB 
release (none of which, as far as I can tell, require glibc 2.19+).

CentOS 7 is built on glibc 2.17.

Also, minor correction: "glib" is the name of a different library than 
glibc.
