Hi,
There was an update of glibc on CentOS 6
http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2015-January/020863.html
and now:
# needs-restarting

How do i tell /sbin/init to use the updated files from glibc without a
reboot?
You can't. See the manpage for /telinit/ and the warning for the "-U"
option.

U or u to request that the init(8) daemon re-execute itself. This

not recommended since Upstart is currently unable to

its state, but is necessary when upgrading system libraries.

which one assume applied to fedora when it was using upstart, not sysV or
systemd. No data on either of them.
The question was specifically about CentOS 6, which uses upstart. SysV init
could re-exec itself cleanly. I have no idea, but plenty of doubts, about
systemd.
