I too am running glibc-2.3.4-2.fc3 and I run all kinds of gl apps, both 
native, and wine, and I have had no problems with any with a minor 
exception of armagetron, but I've had that problem since fc3 first came 
out, so I doubt that it is glibc. I run, UT, UT2k3 UT2k4, Quake 3 Arena, 
Serious sam 1 and 2 (native install) Farcry, DuesEx all with native 
linux installers ( although I think farcray and DuesEx actually use 
wine) and of course the normal games such as tux Racer, Super Tux, 
neverball, frozen bubble just to name a few all I believe use gl. so I 
am not sure where you see an error, but if ( like was said in another 
post) could post some examples of which gl features are faulty, that 
would really help to narrow down the search.
