You have been subscribed to a public bug by Scott Kitterman (kitterman):

The gcc-3.3 package provides libstdc++5, required by some 3rd party
binary-only proprietary software. It was removed from Debian and Ubuntu
when packages no longer depended on it, but that broke 3rd party
software. (LP: #431091 et al.)

Recently, a new gcc-3.3 package has been accepted into Debian and Ubuntu
to provide support for such software: libstdc++5.

Please backport it for Karmic and Lucid users.

It builds fine without modification. It failed to build from source on
powerpc for Maverick, but I doubt many users need this on powerpc
