That's because everything lives in the pool now( see 
http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/ ). You need to add this line to your 
/etc/apt/sources.list,

deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian unstable main non-free contrib

Then run,

apt-get update
apt-get upgrade

That will get you everything you need in order to use the unofficial 
binutils-hppa64 and gcc-hppa64 debs that are on the CD so that you can build a 
64 bit kernel.

Eventually the hppa64 cross-compilers will be in the Debian archive, but not 
until they can be built in a clean/sane fashion. For now just keep using the 
ones on the CD also available at,

ftp://puffin.external.hp.com/pub/parisc/binaries/debian/unofficial-debs/

HTH,
