Upgrade error of glibc

["A.J. Werkman" <werkman digifarma nl>]

If after a fresh install of rh9 I try to upgrade glibc to the latest 
upgrade version (2.3.2-27.9) I get an error status. After that every 
command I type at the command prompt results in a "Segmentation fault".

The screen messages are:

[root]# rpm -Fvh glibc-*.rpm
Preparing...                ###################### [100%]
     1:glibc-common    ###################### [ 33%]
     2:glibc                  ###################### [ 67%]
INIT: version 2.84 reloading

     3:glibc-devel          ####################### [100%]
[root]# rpm
Segmentation fault
[root]#


I was able to reproduce this several times. Is this problem known to 
anyone. Does anyone have a way how I can circumvent this problem and still 
upgrade?
