Hi,

Here is the summarization of the few responses I received, as well as my observations.

As usual, it comes down to the people involved, and how willing they are to accommodate. It seems to vary from 'zero accommodation' to 'gluten free options available' on event websites. The overall theme in the responses was to bring your on own food, or contact the caterers/cooks/feast-o-crat well in advance of the event. I had one response about Pennsic, the the largest of the camping events. To quote:

 "I found the only way to eat at events is to bring your own.
The available places in Pennsic to eat are not safe. Even if they know what is
in the food they are serving, they will not have a non-contaminated area to
prepare them. I bring two ice chests, one with dry ice and meat and the other
for eggs and other perishables. Plan on a shopping trip for groceries. The only
other idea is to go in with a group and you do the shopping and at least
supervise the preparation. SCA is not very accommodating when it comes to feast
at events."  

As for my personal experience, we day tripped to an event yesterday, and brought our own food as there was no formal feast. I have spoken to many of friends in the SCA about food and at least here (Southern Ontario, aka the Kingdom of Ealdormere) people are pretty accommodating. 
I have also seen posts relating to the SCA and gf on several other sites, including the Celiac.com forum in which on of the post talks about a gluten free, sugar free, low sodium cook book for use in preparing medieval feasts. Here is the link to the post:

Thanks for the responses.
