If you have access to x86 hardware (as most people do), you can
run Hurd in a VM - no need for a porterbox.
See https://wiki.debian.org/Debian_GNU/Hurd at the very top
under "installation and testing". Caveat: IIRC virtio doesn't
work on Hurd, so you need to emulate an IDE disk drive plus
a non-virtio network adapter for that to work.
m68k and sh4 do work in qmeu-user-static chroots, the setup
is not quite as trivial however. (I can give you a tarball
that will work in pbuilder and schroot though.) Also, gdb
and strace in qemu-user chroots are non-trivial to use.
Ask me if you're interested.

Christian
