is anyone else seeing this? should i just wait for the repos to get
into sync and try again later?

No problem here. I have installed
$ rpm -q apr-devel gcc libtool
package apr-devel is not installed
gcc-4.0.0-8
libtool-1.5.16.multilib2-1
urk. my fault. i accidentally left fedora's "updates-testing" repo
enabled, which wanted to load gcc-4.0.1, which most packages aren't
prepared to deal with just yet.

p.s. on a side note, was it really necessary to build these rpms with
a dependency as specific as "4.0.0"? isn't that going to require a
whole new round of rpm building when gcc-4.0.1 makes it into updates?
gcc-4.0.1 is supposed to have fixes related to volatile which causes
portions of xorg-x11 and probably other programs to miscompile. The
discussion of fedora-test-list in this thread points to discussions as
to how to change libtools and apr-devel so this doesn't happen in the
future.
