The last glibc updates were kind of bumpy, so I'm very fine with leaving one
out ;)

And when would be the last suitable moment for glibc-2.13 entering
Factory?
This highly depends on what it will gain us - for a 10% performance gain on
web browsing I'm sure users will accept some problems in RCs. But if it's
"just" a version bump, it should be stable to enter past M5. I would even
like to have a mass rebuild with the newer glibc, so this must be taking in
too. So in dates: I would say friday, december 10th.

Okay, fair enough! :-) I will leave the glibc at 2.11 and do an update
to 2.13 if it gets released in time.

I'd say the chance is quite less than 50% now, but Ulrich Drepper
seems to be even more unpredictable than usual now that he has left
Redhat. :-(
