You should still keep the 32bit glibc rpm packages.

I've had this running at some point with the following yum repo:
[devel-x86_64]
name=Fedora Core Development for x86_64
baseurl=file:/mnt/raid/fedora/development/x86_64
exclude=*-debuginfo-* [!g]*.i686 [!g]*.i386 g[!l]*.i386 glib.i386 glib2.i386


Not sure the above still works or if there are nicer ways now todo the
same within mock via other mechanisms. It should be something like
"exclude all *.i686/*.i386 packages, but still keep glibc*.i686 installed".
