Looks like they're supposed to be in bash-builtins.

wooledg:~$ apt-cache search --names-only bash
bash - GNU Bourne Again SHell
bash-builtins - Bash loadable builtins - headers & examples
bash-doc - Documentation and examples for the GNU Bourne Again SHell
bash-static - GNU Bourne Again SHell (static version)
[...]

However, it doesn't appear that all of them are being included:

wooledg:~$ dpkg -L bash-builtins | grep rm
/usr/lib/bash/rmdir
/usr/share/doc/bash/examples/loadables/rm.c
/usr/share/doc/bash/examples/loadables/rmdir.c

Might be better to ask about this on a Debian mailing list.
