you probably right, I'm just write the above script to demonstrate what
I'd like to do, but as you understand what I wanna do, is a simple 
rpm -Fvh *.rpm
of course before that we have to exclude the kernel and the glibc since
it has more rpm with the same version number.

rpm -e for what? the eg. currently glib abi is not compatible with
a few packages and perl(MD5) <-> perl(Diggest::MD5) and ...

that's your (rh) choise what to do, but if there is a binary rawhide than
why don't you do so? or we have to always have to rebuild the whole 
rawhide? or try to select the depenendecy problems and just reuild 
those? that's much more time than you can rebuild the whole rawhide
once!
