On the other machine also running rawhide, the glibc*
are at 

[olivares at localhost ~]$ rpm -qa glibc*
glibc-2.8-3.i686
glibc-devel-2.8-3.i386
glibc-headers-2.8-3.i386
glibc-common-2.8-3.i386


I cannot revert to these, are there any glibc packages
at koji to fix this issue.  Will I have to reinstall
on this machine?  I will come back to this on Monday
with a hope that I can fix this issue.  

TIA,

Antonio
