The experimental gcc-4.0 package is available in the gcc-4.0 tree (and
only for the gcc-4.0 tree so don't try that on pure64).
You can download the debian sources and gcc-4.0 repository sources and
debdiff them. But you have to figure out what is needed for amd64 (if
any) and what is additional stuff needed just for the gcc-4.0
repository.

bugs
