Currently using a host with a newer GLIBC and building the GAs will not
work on guests that use an older version.

That means your build env is incorrect - using newer glibc than what is
available on the target systems will cause breakage.
We avoid such issues by building our guest additions binaries on a VERY
old linux distro.
On Debian it's relatively straightforward to set up "vanilla" distros in
chroot environments, and use the dchroot utility.

since the last few updates
Contents of VBoxGuestAdditions.log
Starting VirtualBox Guest Additions Service /usr/sbin/VBoxService:
/lib/x85_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 version `GLIBC_2.14' not found
(required by /usr/sbin/VBoxService)
/usr/sbin/VBoxService: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version
`GLIBC_2.15' not found (required by /usr/sbin/VBoxService)
...done.
Checking and Debian wheezy SID does not use this version of GLIBC. the
newest I have available in wheezy & SID is 2.13 and the
/lib/x85_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 is a ln to libc-2.13.so
VirtualBox GAs 4.1.14 install properly so is there a change I can make
to allow the service to use 2.13?
