I've got:

glibc-2.3.6-0.fc3.1
glibc-kernheaders-2.4-9.1.94
glibc-headers-2.3.6-0.fc3.1
glibc-devel-2.3.6-0.fc3.1
glibc-common-2.3.6-0.fc3.1

which are all from the fc3 updates tree.

yum refuses to update glibc ("Could not find update match"). I guess
my only choice is to install all the rpms manually.
