Ok, the latest glibc update for FC3 made it at least difficult to
cleanly update to FC4. This is actually a buggy situation. I am not sure
whether we have to expect an FC4 glibc update soon too.

As glibc is a very important and central component of a Linux system one
has to be very cautious dealing with those packages. In this situation
now you would need to downgrade glibc and glibc-common. Is your system
local or remote, so you could handle the situation by booting into
rescue mode from CD/DVD?
