This isn't really an lvm2/device-mapper related question - your problem
appears to be just package management.

So the files conflict with an older version. It looks like you have an
earlier RPM (1.02.20-1.el5) built for the i386 architecture installed.
This is normal on 64-bit x86 as it is a multilib platform (it means both
32 and 64 bit applications that use the device-mapper library can be
installed and used).
E.g.:
# rpm -q --qf="%{NAME}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}.%{ARCH}\n" device-mapper
device-mapper-1.02.39-1.el5.x86_64
device-mapper-1.02.39-1.el5.i386
When it comes to upgrading however you must update the packages together
in a single transaction, e.g.:
# rpm -Uvh device-mapper-1.02.39-1.el5.x86_64.rpm \
device-mapper-1.02.39-1.el5.i386.rpm
Alternately use the distribution-supplied update tool (yum for RHEL5) to
apply updates automatically and this will resolve dependencies and pull
in any other requirements automatically.
