Where can one find gnat-4.4 binary packages?

I installed Sid inside Debian 5.0.1 chroot using instructions
from [1] and [2]. However, my local Debian mirror (ftp.fi.debian.org)
doesn't seem to have gnat-4.4 packages, only gnat-4.3:
# apt-cache search gnat-4.4
# cat /etc/debian_version 
squeeze/sid
# apt-cache search gnat-4.3
gnat-4.3 - The GNU Ada compiler
gnat-4.3-base - The GNU Compiler Collection (gnat base package)
libgnat-4.3 - Runtime library for GNU Ada applications
libgnat-4.3-dbg - Runtime library for GNU Ada applications
# cat /etc/apt/sources.list
deb ftp://ftp.fi.debian.org/pub/debian sid main contrib
deb-src ftp://ftp.fi.debian.org/pub/debian sid main contrib
#

Should I fetch the build scripts from ada-france.org Monotone server
and build the gnat packages manually?
