After:
yum install ncurses-devel 
yum install swig

I can successfully build the RPM from
heartbeat-2.0.8-3.src.rpm

AND I can then successfully install the RPMS that I built.

Then I think I realized my mistake. With x86_64, many times you install
both the i386 AND the x86_64 RPMS. So maybe I am not supposed to install
both. I un-installed the RPMS I just made. Then I installed ONLY THE
x86_64 RPMS and viola! They installed without a problem...

The end result appears to be that with heartbeat, it is an either/or
situation in regards to what RPMS are needed. ONLY install the ones
built for your architecture. In my case, x86_64.

Hopefully this info will help someone else down the road.
