You can't build the PA64 bfd/binutils with HP's tools (there's numerous 
reasons,
all HP bugs/mis-features).

Presumably you don't have any PA64 GNU bits you can use for bootstrapping?

Then you'll need to build a host-x-host cross compiler using the 
GNU PA32 tools to build PA64 tools.  You can then use those PA64 tools
to rebuild native PA64 tools.
