OK, I reassign to hurd. Reassigning to hurd related core package is
better approach to fix this issue.
Note that there are some lacks of feature even on linux - like new
posix functions or so. Such some functions need to implement into
kernel in first.
Hurd is not official release architecture - it can break other
packages and it's not critical issue.

hurd wishlist has only 2 entries (plus this), so we don't miss.
