Sorry, I accidentally pasted the incomplete error message. It was part
of this kind of message in my syslog:

Nov 25 19:40:01 [cron] PAM unable to
dlopen(/lib64/security/pam_unix.so): /lib64/libc.so.6: version
`GLIBC_2.14' not found (required by /lib64/security/pam_unix.so)
Nov 25 19:40:01 [cron] PAM adding faulty module: /lib64/security/pam_unix.so

and xdm wouldn't restart after i upgraded glibc, until I rebuilt PAM.
Or maybe it was coincidental...
