Andrei, the only reason he's running into problems is because in the rpm 
script there is the line

Requires:       gcc(x86-32)

which requires gcc to be 32 bit. I've been running dmd with 64 bit gcc 
on fedora for years without problems. Change the line to

Requires:       gcc

and it will work fine.
