Alfredo,

On trunk we have:
~~~ nss/Makefile
# Directory for the database files and Makefile for nss_db.
ifndef vardbdir
vardbdir = /var/db
endif
inst_vardbdir = $(install_root)$(vardbdir)
~~~
~~~ config.make.in
# Installation prefixes.
install_root = $(DESTDIR)
~~~
Description of "DESTDIR":
http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/DESTDIR.html

Which means that it should install relative to your set DESTDIR.

Could you please provide more information:
* How did you configure glibc?
* Exact command used to install glibc?
