fish is working fine compiled against glibc 2.11.3 here, and it builds in versions maverick to quantal against the version of glibc in the Ubuntu archives for that version. The package on ridculousfish's webpage does require 2.15, but that's only because it's built against that version. If you are definitely running a version you have compile from source, what version of libc6-dev do you have installed?
