I would much rather have the versioned Requires than the versioned Conflicts.

This means that all of your installed kernels much be > 2.6.9, or glibc hits
this Conflict. With it as a requires, as long as one kernel is >= 2.6.9, we meet
this Requires.

But, I do see Patrice's point, this will pull kernel into the default buildroot.

Perhaps it would be best to drop it altogether, since the last Fedora with a
2.6.9 kernel was FC-3, 6 releases back from F-9. We'd leave it as a comment for
anyone foolish enough to try to run modern glibc with old kernels.
