Two ways comes to mind immetiatedly.

alias mrpm='rpm --queryformat "%{name}-%{version}-%{release}.%{arch}\n" '

and then

[root@dual /]# mrpm -q glibc
glibc-2.3.2-95.27.xen.i686
glibc-2.3.2-95.27.xen.x86_64


or 

%_query_all_fmt %%{name}-%%{version}-%%{release}.%%{arch}

to ~/.rpmmarcros and rpm will puke out as 

[root@dual /]# rpm -q glibc
glibc-2.3.2-95.27.xen.i686
glibc-2.3.2-95.27.xen.x86_64

No. it's hybrid arch so ia32 and x86-64 libs/packages can co-exist on
same machine. it's not always easy, but possible.

After above 'tips', u'll see more exactly what is installed in your
system. Generally it's good idea to keep at least glibc.i686 and
glibc-devel.i386 installed.
