Hmmm ... I clearly have them both installed one one system ... and they 
both own the same file.

# rpm -q fontconfig
fontconfig-2.2.3-7.i386
fontconfig-2.2.3-7.x86_64
# rpm -qf /usr/share/man/man5/fonts-conf.5.gz
fontconfig-2.2.3-7.i386
fontconfig-2.2.3-7.x86_64
#

But I believe that was done during a the install.

what happens if you use something like yum to install it, like

  yum install fontconfig.i386
