Knowing of the problem before I booted up the system again, I booted 
into runlevel 1 first, then after it being successful, I went to 
'telinit 3' and tried to start X. I got this traceback error with xorg 
and the later glibc.

Trying it again after reconfiguring X with X -configure gave me this 
error but no traceback.

I noticed the sendmail error when I was changing to runlevel 3 from 
runlevel 1.

The system seems to still be able to get to the net and is able to run 
yum it seems. Is this problem because of some programs not being 
compiled for the new glibc? Is the glibc just buggy? Or did code get 
removed from the library which effects at least sendmail and X?

Basically, is there anything that is not known by the developers which 
could be checked out on a system that functions partially to pinpoint 
the problem with the new library version? Or is the library version 
going to be rolled back, So I should downgrade glibc and deps?

Rollback, collect data and wait for a newer debugged version?
