I'm guessing this is more likely to be a libguestfs thing (ie. needs a rebuild), so changing the component accordingly.
I'm not sure that it is a libguestfs issue. I was going to assign it to libguestfs originally, but then I looked closer at the yum output. Notice that there is no ntfsprogs-2011.4.12-2.el5.i386 in the x86_64 repos. I believe there should be.
re-assigning to ntfs-3g as an multilib upgrade path issue. See also, https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/4728
I don't think I understand that ... does libguestfs need a rebuild or not?

Trying to update to ntfs-3g-2011.4.12-3.el5 it still fails because nothing seems to provide /usr/lib64/libntfs.so.9 anymore. Is that intended?

Yes, libguestfs needs a rebuild in EPEL too.
Should the libguestfs update¹ be included in the same update as ntfs-3g, to ensure that they both go to stable at the same time? If not, some care will be needed to prevent breakage if one goes stable before the other, no? ¹ https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/libguestfs-1.2.14-3.el5
I gathered from comment 6 that ntfs-3g is already in EPEL 5. If not, then I probably built libguestfs against the wrong version of ntfs-3g (ie. it would have the old deps): http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/rpminfo?rpmID=2544868
It's only in epel-testing. I don't believe that updates from epel-testing are present in the buildroot, so this libguestfs build was using the older packages. It still has the now-bogus /usr/lib/libntfs.so.9 dep.
It's so stupid we still don't have a way to build against packages without having to ask someone to do it and affecting all other builds at the same time. https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/4738
Apparently I cannot edit the update. But someone who is able to could try adding this http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3068421 to https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/ntfs-3g-2011.4.12-3.el5
