I have a SRPM which patches and compiles Fedora's GCC package(s). It creates 
gcc-d (example: /home/dejan/var/rpm/RPMS/x86_64/gcc-
d-4.5.1-4.fc14.x86_64.rpm ) RPM, and replaces system's gcc. I had no time to 
update it for use with later GCC because I decided to wait for GDC to be 
included in GCC, and then D will be in GCC anyway... :)

If you wish, I can update my SRPM and post it somewhere together with my 
.spec file.
