I ran into this too on my 7.1 system. Here's what I did:
# ncftp ftp.redhat.com
cd /pub/redhat/linux/updates/7.1/en/os/i386 (from memory - verify this
yourself)
get glibc*.rpm
exit
# rpm -Fvh glibc*.rpm
# up2date -p
You'll now have the latest glibc packages for the 386. My system is
actually an AMD K6/2-350 but uses a 586 kernel and 386
architecture-specific packages.
