[Fedora-packaging] any reason why "sdcc" package transforms pgms to non-standard names?

And such a directory is a standard part of the Fedora sdcc package:
rpm -ql sdcc
<snip>
/usr/libexec/sdcc/as-gbz80
/usr/libexec/sdcc/as-hc08
/usr/libexec/sdcc/as-z80
/usr/libexec/sdcc/aslink
/usr/libexec/sdcc/asx8051
/usr/libexec/sdcc/link-gbz80
/usr/libexec/sdcc/link-hc08
/usr/libexec/sdcc/link-z80
/usr/libexec/sdcc/makebin
/usr/libexec/sdcc/packihx
/usr/libexec/sdcc/s51
/usr/libexec/sdcc/savr
/usr/libexec/sdcc/sdcc
/usr/libexec/sdcc/sdcclib
/usr/libexec/sdcc/sdcdb
/usr/libexec/sdcc/sdcpp
/usr/libexec/sdcc/shc08
/usr/libexec/sdcc/sz80
/usr/share/doc/sdcc-2.6.0
/usr/share/doc/sdcc-2.6.0/INSTALL.txt
/usr/share/doc/sdcc-2.6.0/README.fedora
<snip>

So the solution is to:
1) rtfm, aka README.fedora, where this is described
2) do "export PATH=/usr/libexec/sdcc:$PATH" before trying to build
    openwrt and / or add this to your .bashrc
