They're embedded in the one tarball.   You have to extract it
like glibc-get.sh does:

file=2.3-20050328
tar -xzf glibc-$file.tar.gz
tar --exclude CVS --exclude linuxthreads* -czf ../glibc-$file.tar.gz glibc-$file
cd glibc-$file
tar -czf ../../glibc-linuxthreads-$file.tar.gz linuxthreads*

I should add support in getandpatch.sh for fetching and
repacking these...

That would work, too.
