That it feels wrong and klunky to have to have a working i686
distribution before we can have a working x86_64 distribution.

I know it's not the goal of fedora but at some point I would hope we
could just rid ourselves of i686 forever once x86_64 saturation is
sufficiently complete.

Anyway to fix the problem for the mock case in your mock.cfg make it
look like this:

[main]
cachedir=/var/cache/yum
debuglevel=1
reposdir=/dev/null
logfile=/var/log/yum.log
retries=20
obsoletes=1
gpgcheck=0
assumeyes=1
exclude=*.i386 *.486 *.586 *.i686 *.athlon
includepkgs=glibc*.i686 *.x86_64 *.ia32e *.noarch



that should allow for the specific packages you want.

whomever is running against this error, please let me know if the above
succeeds.

thanks,
