That usually means that you have both x86 and x86_64 variants
installed and that a mirror from which you are trying to run
updates has/had different versions for both. Packages for different
architectures have to be updated "in a lockstep" or you will see
such conflicts.
Metadata should have expired in the meantime anyway but in a case
you got a mess there, due to not entirely healthy mirror you were
trying to get that stuff from, try if 'yum clean metadata' will
straighten things out.
In case you need a glibc update only for x86_64 then running
yum -y upgrade glibc.x86_64
gives a helpful hand to yum. Also when you know that something
is not entirely healthy then running 'yum -y...' is not so great
idea.
