Do the following instead:

        rpm -Uhv --nodeps XFree86-SVGA-3.3.5-4.i386.rpm

        rpm -Uhv --nodeps XFree86-XF86Setup-3.3.5-4.i386.rpm

The --nodeps option will cause RPM to ignore any dependency issues it
finds.  Because you're not running a Linux distro which installs itself
by RPM, the RPM database on your computer doesn't know the fact that
you've actually already got glibc and such.

Hope that helps,
