There may be good reasons to install Linux even if you use The Hurd.

For example, consider emulators such as qemu (no I didn't check if
this one runs under The Hurd).

So omitting these packages from the Package index files on *BSD or The
Hurd (if/when this is possible) may not be the best solution.
