I'm impressed.  It sounds like maybe the SuSE upgrade did an "ldd /usr/bin/*" 
to find out what versions of libraries were required.  I can't think of how 
else it could determine that, since you say that the app doesn't install with 
rpm.

You might try just installing both versions of glibc.  rpm -ivh 
glibc-old-version.rpm where of course you replace that with the proper name.  
Properly written libraries should be able to co-exist.

I'm not sure how yast does things, but with apt there is a config file where 
you can say that certain packages are allowed to be duplicated.  yast may 
need something similar.
