You can get colorgcc at..
http://www.mindspring.com/~jamoyers/software/
.. it's a tar.gz file, so you'll have to do a little work to install it : ) But it's all in the instructions in the download.. basically you "soft-link" your compiler command (such as "gcc") to colorgcc. Then you add your compilers location to your colorgcc configuration file. Then your compiler output will go via colorgcc, voila : )

That's a pity that there's no colorgcc package for Fedora...

Maybe you should make one? :) I've always wanted to try packaging, but never been able to find a decent tutorial that didn't make me think I was going to break something!
