The problem remains after upgrading:

$ LC_MESSAGES=C apt-cache policy libc6
libc6:
  Installed: 2.10.2-2
  Candidate: 2.10.2-2
  Version table:
 *** 2.10.2-2 0
        100 http://ftp.be.debian.org unstable/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

I'm more than happy to provide any other input.

Cheers,
Serafeim
