The semidirect product of two groups is not unique, this is why C5:C4occurs 
twice.  You can ask GAP to construct an explicit isomorphismbetween F and one 
of the two C5:C4 groups:
gap> F:=FreeGroup(2);;gap> s:=F.1;; t:=F.2;;gap> 
G:=F/[s^4,t^5,t*s*t^-2*s^-1];;gap> StructureDescription(G);"C5 : C4"gap> 
IsomorphismGroups(G,SmallGroup(20,1));failgap> 
IsomorphismGroups(G,SmallGroup(20,3));[ f1, f2 ] -> [ f1, f3 ]
So, as you can see, F is isomorphic to SmallGroup(20,3).
I hope this helps.
