Strange how that even compiled.

Maybe an old binary that was using older glibc?

You should maybe file a RFP at Debian then:
<https://wiki.debian.org/RFP>, but as I remember Slava was not too
thrilled about the Arch Linux package and recommended to use the Git
version.

To get a newer Glibc, update to a newer Debian release. Although as far
as I see, Debian does not have a release which ships with Glibc >=
2.14, so installing from source is probably your best bet.
