There's a fix, not sure if it's in normal updates--I went and grabbed it
after it was mentioned in the bug report.  You want to have

glibc-2.14.90-12.999

If your glibc is lower than that, the problem exists.  To temporarily
work around it, you can just add user mike in sudo.  (Doing su still
works--do su, do visudo, and add mike      ALL=(ALL)   ALL


This will let user mike use sudo.  Once you get glibc-2.14.90-12.999 you
can remove mike from sudoers, and go back to using wheel.
