Try looking at freevsd-pkgs-1.4.xxxx.i386.rpm. This rpm consists of a number of packages (themselves rpms) to be installed into skels. These packages have been patched to provide better virtualisation and a psuedo-root admin user. Among them is glibc. Unless you are generating your own skels you do not need the frevsd-pkgs rpm. Unless you are intending to start enhancing it you need not worry about the glibc-2.1-freevsd.patch. I would recommend that you simply use the prebuilt skels which have been provided.
