The problem is that the "hints" header c-gnu.h, provided by the Debian

Attached there is an updated version of the hurd patch, which allows
libcurses-perl to build again. Would it be possible to forward it
upstream, so this header will need less Debian-specific handling?

Without having looked at it and just based on your description: Is
there a chance that neither we nor upstream will have to ship that
file and keep it uptodate, but that we build-depend on something on
hurd-i386 only and we just have to "#include" that?

Unless upstream changes the way those ncurses "hints" header work,
I'd say working around it locally just makes things worse.

For the rest, I guess it might be better to take a look at the actual
files in the hints/ subdirectory.
