It is a working package mirror. It's just that the GPG signatures are no longer
valid and you need to tell debian-installer to ignore them:
root@raverin:/srv# debootstrap --no-check-gpg --arch=sparc wheezy wheezy-sparc-sbuild https://archive.debian.org/debian
I: Target architecture can be executed
I: Retrieving InRelease
I: Retrieving Release
I: Retrieving Packages
I: Retrieving Packages
I: Validating Packages
(...)
I: Configuring aptitude...
I: Configuring libcurl3-gnutls:sparc...
I: Configuring apt-transport-https...
I: Configuring tasksel...
I: Configuring tasksel-data...
I: Configuring ca-certificates...
I: Base system installed successfully.
root@raverin:/srv# chroot wheezy-sparc-sbuild/
root@raverin:/#
I think there might be a boot command line option for debian-installer to achieve that or
you can try setting the clock back to a date before the Wheezy key expiration date.
