If you can't change your glibc version then you need to build gfortran yourself from source. The problem is that the person that is building the gfortran binary packages on the Wiki has a newer version of glibc than you do, and the configure script accordingly detects and enables the use of the newer glibc features. If you try to use it with an older glibc it will fail because they don't exist, but if you built it yourself from source it won't detect and enable the use of those features. This is a general problem with relying on binary packages that are not part of a distro (which has control over all versions.) -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=37545
