Steven,
As I understood it you wanted the build to fail on Hurd so everyone
would know there was an AF_LINK/sockaddr_dl bug on Hurd. I am not
convinced that that is the right tack to take. I discussed the more
general AF_LINK/sockaddr_dl issue with Pino today, and he's going to
follow up on. But for now I'm just trying to get this package to build
in a sane - if not ideal - way. I'm still open to arguments of course
especially from the maintainer.
