The easiest way to do it doesn't involve "--force" or "--nodeps" at all.
Just do:

rpm -Uvh glib10-1.0.6-4.i386.rpm gtk+10-1.0.6-4.i386.rpm glib-1.2.0-1.i386.rpm gtk+-1.2.0-2.i386.rpm

all on one line.  The glib10 and gtk+10 packages satisfy the dependencies
of the older versions of glib and gtk, while the new versions upgrade the
actual package.
