All GCC C++ programs linked to glibc as well as libstdc++. Not to 
mention that most of the other libraries that KDE links to also depend 
on glibc. With extremely few exceptions, *every* program on your system 
uses glibc regardless of the language it's written in.

Not to say that upgrading glibc is going to necessarily have a drastic 
effect on performance, but if you could only upgrade one library and 
wanted to get the most bang for your buck, glibc would be the one to 
pick. =)
