What Matthew says is correct for the kernel. You got your error because
you look to have compiled your program in userspace with kernel
headers. Since userspace is currently only 32 bit, that's why you get
the problems.
If you want to try out 64 bit userspace, which is the only way userspace
will see a virtual address longer than 32 bits, then there's a
preliminary test environment at
http://parisc-linux.org/~jejb/64bit.tar.gz
The mini library may be sufficient to compile your program.
