Backports would be a place to go. There seem to be others in your
situation:

https://lists.debian.org/debian-gcc/2018/04/msg00137.html

(but I haven't seen an answer to this request in that mailing
list).

Perhaps pinging debian-gcc list is a good idea.

Alternatively, if you just want to build for testing, some
pbuilder (chroot) setup might help, but then your program
might want to link to newer core libraries...
