you can get it from:
ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/gnu/funet
It has:
-rw-r--r-- 1 mea gnu-adm 8080660 Feb 11 23:01 glibc-2.1.tar.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 mea gnu-adm 40730 Feb 6 20:33 glibc-crypt-2.1.tar.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 mea gnu-adm 122532 Feb 11 23:01 glibc-linuxthreads-2.1.tar.gz
which is everything that you need. :)
If you're looking for RPMs though....
