I know that the packages from Xamarin never worked for CentOS5.
I guess they only target the latest CentOS version, which is 7.
Yes, on CentOS7 there is glibc 2.17

As an alternative, you are welcome to use this copr repo
https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/tpokorra/mono/ which is
maintained by Claudio and myself.
It provides a separate repository for each CentOS6 and CentOS7, and we
keep it uptodate with the latest stable Mono version.

Now that we got Mono 4 into Fedora23, the next step would be to get it
into Epel for CentOS7. But currently my focus is on other projects,
but will get to it.

Hope this helps,
  Timotheus
