I don't use the up2date service; I'd rather not have 
things happening behind my back all the time that aren't
even necessary in the first place.

That's exactly what I mean and why I asked my original
question.
My system is fine; there's no reason to go start changing
libs all over the place and risk breaking things just because
I want to add or change a particular service.

When I did an rpm -i on the vsftpd package it complained
that it needed a newer glibc and that wrappers were
missing.

I hate getting into those cascades...

Thanks though, Eric. I pulled the source tarball and
compiled it for my host, and it's smiles all 'round.
