You should probably not care about RC4005 any more. Its successor is
almost ready, and was specifically created to address major deficiencies
in RFC4005. The deficiencies were to such an extent that common belief
in the IETF is "nobody uses this".

See here for the successor draft spec:

Out of curiosity: one of the many problems of RFC4005 was that it was
syntactically impossible to translate a Diameter attribute of length
>253 Bytes into a RADIUS attribute; for obvious reasons.

RADIUS has meanwhile specified "long" attributes, making this
translation possible. Does your Diameter gateway already include support
for extended RADIUS attributes? I'm speaking of RFC6929:
