I did the same thing and even grabbed the files from the same ftp
When rpm was updating, there were two script failures, reboot. I'm hosed.

You need rpms for packages you want to revert and then
rpm -Uvh --oldpackage
<list_of_rpm_files_with_packages_you_want_here>
In a case of glibc do not foreget about 'nscd' package if you have
that installed.
In general 'rpm --help | less' and look at results.

Thanks - that fixed it for me (OP).
FYI I went here:
ftp://limestone.uoregon.edu/fedora/6/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS
and got:
glibc-devel-2.5-3.i386.rpm nscd-2.5-3.i386.rpm
glibc-2.5-3.i386.rpm glibc-headers-2.5-3.i386.rpm
glibc-common-2.5-3.i386.rpm glibc-utils-2.5-3.i386.rpm
then:
rpm -Uvh --oldpackage glibc*.rpm nscd*.rpm
that fixed it.
Death before Decaf!!!
