Another posibility is to edit /etc/yum.conf, and change "exactarch=1" to 
"exactarch=0", and run "yum update glibc.i386".  When it is done, edit 
/etc/yum.conf again, and undo the change (set "exactarch=1").  Run "yum 
update" to update the rest of the system.

Oh, and I'd like to thanks Bryan for extremely educative and informative 
mailings about i586.  Well, at least to me, I still have two Intel 
Pentium MMX chips in working condition and powered on 24/7.  One of them 
powering my laptop, and the other was happily running Apache, Sendmail 
and Cyrus IMAPD servers until about month or two ago (now being used as 
firewall) ;-)
