This is a WELL KNOWN RedHat problem

they seem to insist on releasing non-released versions of packages
this time they packaged a pre-release version of MESA

You can either download Mesa your self and install it or
get the fixed RedHat package
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/rawhide/i386/RedHat/RPMS/Mesa-3.4.2-9.
i386.rpm

There is probably some more info about this on the RedHat site

Cheers

Norman
