you should be able to use:
ebuild <path-to-ebuild>/glibc-2.14.1-r3.ebuild package
Quoting the manpage:
package
This command is a lot like the merge command, except that
after fetching, unpacking, com‐
piling and installing, a .tbz2 binary package tarball is
created and stored in PKGDIR (see
make.conf(5)).
You may need to set PKGDIR.
