For all those who are hit by this and need to get their production server up again ASAP, here's an emergency workaround (downgrading libc6 to 2.11.1-0ubuntu7.13):

x86:
dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/libc-bin_2.11.1-0ubuntu7.13_i386.deb &&
dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.11.1-0ubuntu7.13_i386.deb

x64:
sudo dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/libc-bin_2.11.1-0ubuntu7.13_amd64.deb &&
sudo dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.11.1-0ubuntu7.13_amd64.deb

If you don't have the packages in /var/cache/apt/archives, you can get them from http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/e/eglibc/
