I had the exact same problem, and I'm not sure exactly why this works, but
here's what I did:

Downloaded the xine-lib-moles rpm from here:
http://moonshine.freshrpms.net/rpm.html?id=523

ie, wget
http://ftp.freshrpms.net/pub/freshrpms/fedora/linux/7/xine-lib-moles/xine-lib-moles-1.1.10.1-1.fc7.i386.rpm

Then do a yum localinstall (which installs xine-lib-mole's deps)

  yum localinstall xine-lib-moles-1.1.10.1-1.fc7.i386.rpm

Now installing xine should work:

  yum install xine
