[kettenis@delius.kettenis.nl: [PATCH]5.005_54 (CONFIG) Added support for GNU/Hurd]
I just posted this message to the perl5-porters mailing list. In
principle this is all that's needed to get the current Perl
development release working on the Hurd.

Subject: [PATCH]5.005_54 (CONFIG) Added support for GNU/Hurd
This patch adds support for the GNU/Hurd. It configures and builds
OK, but there are still some tests that fail. Most tests fail because
of OS bugs and/or because I don't have a network card which currently
means that the INET protocal family is not available.
I sent a similar patch some time ago to perlbug@perl.org, but got no
reaction. This patch is a little different since it only adds a hints
file, and doesn't touch the Configure file. And it is of course
against the latest test release.
Anyway, it would be great if this could be included in the next
release.
