Actually, this was a fresh installation. I had been running Debian
before and had reformatted everything but /home.

Was this installation an upgrade? The FC5 installer creates only the
one file in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts, and that appears to be
sufficient. If you (re)configure with system-config-network, there
will be two additional hard links to that same file:
3290919 ./sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
3290919 ./sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0
3290919 ./sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/ifcfg-eth0
It looks like you got a broken setup with some files left over
from a previous installation.
