That's exactly right, the symbols come from glibc. If a program is
compiled against a glibc that provides 2.3.4 symbols, it's possible that
it will need 2.3.4 symbols to run, so you will need to install a glibc
that provides 2.3.4 symbols.

It sounds to me like you're pulling packages from Fedora Core 2 test
releases or development snapshots. If you're doing that, get glibc
from the Fedora Core 2 test releases or development snapshots too.
That will fix your problem.
