Yes, you should do "rpm -ql zlib.i386" or "rpm -ql zlib.x86_64" to
see the files from one package.

List packages like this:
rpm -qa --qf '%{name}.%{arch}'
and you'll see what's there.
Normally on RHEL5, if you install a package, both 32-bit and 64-bit
are installed if they exist both. You can always explicitly install
one version with "yum install pkg.i386" or "yum install pkg.x86_64".

Yes, see above for how to get a better listing. The arch is listed
by default on Fedora 9+ (IIRC), but not on RHEL yet.
