Probably, yes.

google glibc -> http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/
/bugs -> http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/bugs.html
/new -> http://sources.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi?product=glibc

However, as Alfred told me on IRC, mere bug report (without patch)
should probably go there.

As for patches, searching for "patch" in the libc website also leads to
the bugzilla, nothing says that they should get sent to the list.
