If you are trying to install GCC, I believe that 

# yum install gcc*

 will do the job for you.  Or install the GCC packages from the Fedora CD's.
Fedora has GCC, but you might not have it depending on how you installed
your system.

If you are trying to install Apache, you can also install it from the
recently released package rather than building from source.  But if you
specifically want to build Apache from source, you can.  Remember to install
the kernel-source package to make this go.
