What's the best way to revert something with as many tentacles as glibc?
I had the same problem and reverted glibc (using an x86_32 system.
Download an older rpm for both glibc and glibc.common. The FC6 version
is recent enough not to cause dependency issues.
Then
rpm -Uvh glibc*.rpm --oldpackage
If you have the glibc devel and headers stuff then you'll have to
download it or just force it temporarily until the fixed glibc comes
out.
