Package hhvm is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package 'hhvm' has no installation candidate

We won't provide HHVM packages for stretch before we start the stretch migration of the production app servers since building HHVM and the extensions and keeping them updated is quite a bit of work. That won't be far away, though. I'd like to start migrating the app servers to stretch some time next quarter.
[changing status to stalled and priority lowest since this will happen eventually, just not now]
I think this can be declined now given the plans to use PHP 7?
Based on T174431#3623584, ignore my comment.
HHVM is available for stretch-wikimedia for quite a while now (used by the video scalers).
