The following things need to change in the FHS itself:

/var/mail, /var/spool/news are shareable, no?
The FHS states /var is for "variable" files.

b's are for libraries.
As far as I can tell, the GNU coding standards would place the
contents of /var/lib in /com. Maybe there are other subdirectories of
/var whose contents would be in /com, too.

use apt and another operating system to fetch and install packages,
provided that both GNU/Hurd and the other operating system can access
a shared filesystem. For now that means the other os has to be a
GNU/Linux (may I suggest Debian :)) or a BSD.
