If you check out glibc from CVS with this command:

you will likely get this:

You need to use cvs's -P flag, otherwise cvs will create empty
directories which confuse glibc's configure script.
i.e. check out with
cvs -d:pserver:anoncvs@sources.redhat.com:/cvs/glibc -P co libc
or do
cvs update -dP
The instructions on http://sourceware.org/glibc/ are not entirely correct.
They would only work if you have put "update -dP" in your ~/.cvsrc.
