unbzip glibc-* #Julian's install log
cp glib* /var/log/install/glib-2.3.1 #overwrite the existing,
glibc-2.1.3
cast -c glibc
That's what I did.
Make sure you don't have any other glibc entries in packages and there
aren't any other glibc install logs.

If you complete the install by hand, you don't get the install log. I
found that if I ^Z when the errors start scrolling, run ldconfig and
then fg it it'll complete... but I don't think it completed successfuly.
