I guess one can't really ask a glider to go around.

There's no rule that says you have to give way to gliders.

unpowered over powered?

Either way. The only time the class preference occurs
is when coverging at other than headon (or nearly so).
Other than that the other rules apply. On approach,
the aircraft on final has the right of way. This is
not a problem for gliders, generally. While they
can't go around, they will yield to powered aircraft
already on final and pull in behind them. This is
almost never an issue because gliders are flying a
lot slower.
