Just browsed the changelog of glibc-2.15: http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2012-03/msg00836.html When I read the NEWS section there with all that "optimized" stuff I wonder if it makes any sense to rebuild packages here after upgrading glibc?
I think you're a bit confused about how shared libraries work. The major reason for their existence is that when you update a shared library, everything that was linked against it will use the updated version. So if you installd glibc-2.15, all packages will now use that version instead of 2.14.
