Hello Bill, Currently amd64 is affected by some bug on binutils, preventing to compile gcc, see binutils thread[1].
Testing handling is work in progress, not priority at the moment for lack of time. Developer time is welcome towards having a working in unstable cross toolchain. As a user or commercial development, clearly lenny should be used.

My lenny chroot is getting tired! :) Unstable will be unstable until all transitions affecting us happen. Not before next release. I could try to get in shape testing toolchains on amd64 if you are willing to contribute testing them as a user, but modify sid by testing on the sources.list file.
