Why is my x86_64 system is registering as an i386 system in Red Hat Network?

Updated -

Limitation:

This has been found on an x86_64 system that has i386 packages installed on the system and may not be applicable for other architectures.

Symptom:

The system keeps registering on Red Hat Network (RHN) as an i386 machine eventhough it is a 64bit architecture machine.
