Nope :)
Most of the structures have subtly different content, for various
reasons.
I actually rather based on BSD, on which the Hurd happens to base rather
than on Linux.

Before getting to this, a lot already has to be written. I have indeed
started with copying/pasting structures from BSD ports, just to get the
thing going, but even that way a lot has to be copy/pasted before just
getting libc to build.
