A lot of which *already* have [linux-any] or [!hurd-i386 !kfreebsd-i386
!kfreebsd-amd64] or | not+linux-gnu in the dependency (the former is the
preferred form). Better use

grep-aptavail -FBuild-Depends -sPackage,Build-Depends  -n "libcap" mySources | paste -sd "  \n" | sed -e 's/^\([^ ]*\) .*, \(libcap[^,]*\).*$/\1: \2/' | grep -v hurd-i386 | grep -v linux-any | grep -v not+linux-gnu | grep -v libcapi

which gives way less packages:

asterisk: libcap-dev (>= 1:2.16-4) | libcap2-dev
autodir: libcap-dev 
bluez: libcap-ng-dev 
eucalyptus: libcap-dev
ltp: libcap2-bin
lxc: libcap-dev (>= 1:2.17-2)
libexplain: libcap-dev
libvirt: libcap-ng-dev
mcstrans: libcap2-dev
mumble: libcap-dev [!kfreebsd-i386 !kfreebsd-amd64]
nepenthes: libcap2-dev
nfs-utils: libcap-dev 
python-prctl: libcap-dev (>= 2)
quagga: libcap-dev
setools: libcap-dev
strongswan: libcap-dev 
suricata: libcap-ng-dev 
vdr: libcap2-dev | libcap-dev
virtualbox-ose: libcap-dev
zorp: libcap-dev

quite a few of which probably can't be built on hurd-i386 anyway: bluez,
ltp, nfs-utils, virtualbox-ose, ... And one of which already has the
arch-specific qualifier, just not for hurd-i386.
