Please verify your date and time are up to date.  Having an incorrect
system time can cause
the SSL verification on the yum repo get to fail.  Also if you can not
install glibc-devel via yum
please post the output of yum list 'glibc*' so we can evaluate it.  We
obviously want to fix this
if it is a problem.
