I did install libc6-dev. (btw, there doesn't look to be any reason
not to use deb_install for libc6-dev. Is there any?)

Yep, yep.

Aw, come on, you're doing a great job! Did I mention that my hurd
partition straddles the 500MB line and I have one of those old
controllers? Once when I untarred a hurd onto it, it couldn't boot
because boot/gnumach was (I guess) beyond 500MB. Now I'm kind of
assuming that I wouldn't get this far if that were a concern this
time. (I have gotten as far as sh and emacs with an earlier hurd.)

For your amusement, I include here the terminal output:
