Hi,
Thanks for the replay
Actually I tried different glibc versions end even installing openstack 
on fedora 15, I had the same problem.
     $> yum downgrade glibc glibc-common
     $> service openstack-glance-api start
     $> service openstack-glance-registry start

works fine, everything starts ok but with some warnings:

Now try to start nova:

Only nova-volume starts, the rest services have segfault:

By the way, the same happens with  glibc-2.14.90-12.i686
