I'm afraid the answer is "build it from source yourself". There's no
official 64-bit tarball (and most likely there won't be any before
Firefox 4.0), and builds from other distributions will likely require
newer libraries than available in Lenny.
Try "aptitude build-dep xulrunner-1.9 iceweasel" to install the required
development packages.
