It used to be you can determine the versiob of glibc using 'ls -l /lib/libc.so.6' on SuSE. This only yields the following with SuSE Office Desktop: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1312483 Nov 14 10:30 /lib/libc.so.6
Why not just run /lib/libc.so.6 ? It returns its version then. Mine, for example says (on SuSE 8.1): GNU C Library stable release version 2.2.5, by Roland McGrath et al.
