CMake macro to detect glibc version by filename.

glibc.cmake

# - Check glibc version

# Once done this will define

#   GLIBC_VERSION - glibc version

        MESSAGE (FATAL_ERROR "Unknown glibc version: ${GLIBC_VERSION}")
    ENDIF (NOT GLIBC_VERSION MATCHES "^[0-9.]+$")
ENDMACRO (CHECK_GLIBC_VERSION)

Even added this line, it seems that only the major version of glibc can be extracted
