I'm building these packages for 32-bit Fedora 4. I've had to solve lots 
of small problems, but I'm almost there now. I'm going to release them 
as soon as I figure out how to resolve a conflict between the GDB 
packages and the compiler packages (on the files info/dir and 
lib/libiberty.a).

I plan to install Fedora 5 shortly after it's released, and then I 
expect to be able to build packages for Fedora 5 without too much 
trouble, as it's working on Fedora 4 now.

I don't know how much trouble there would be building 64-bit Fedora 
packages, but I'd guess any trouble would mostly be in cases where Suse 
and Fedora do 64-bit stuff differently.

One problem I had was that initially I didn't have any Gnat/GPL, and 
Gnat/GCC couldn't compile Gnat/GPL. I installed the Gnat/GPL package for 
Suse and compiled Gnat/GPL for Fedora with that. I had to ignore some 
dependencies to get the Suse package installed, but it did successfully 
compile the compiler. I wouldn't recommend this as a permanent solution 
though.
