File conflicts, how do they work at that point?

Transaction Check Error:
  file /usr/bin/smcs from install of mono-core-1.2.5.1-3.fc8 conflicts with file from package mono-core-1.2.5.1-3.fc8

Now that's a beautiful error message :-) Probably one is x86_64 and
the other i386.

What are the rules for file conflicts now?  I thought they didn't
exist anymore since multilib makes them more than annoying, and you
couldn't even install both glibcs, but it looks like they can still
appear somehow...

  OG.
