The .deb in question is gcc-3.0-base, comes from gcc-3.0 source.  I have
included it in debootstrap for hppa because libstdc++3 depends on it.
apt depends on libstdc++3, etc.

Having said that,

slab:/usr/src# dpkg -c /var/cache/apt/archives/gcc-3.0-base_1%3a3.0-0pre010526_all.deb

nothing very vital in gcc-3.0-base.
