I think RedHat keeps it in libc-5.3.12-*.

'rpmfind' is a neat tool that can reduce guessing (particularly if
you are using RedHat or SuSE).  You could do something like:
rpmfind --dist redhat libm.so.5
http://www.rpmfind.org/  (and if you have a recent RedHat/SuSE,
you probably already have the rpmfind client)
