I don't actually see the problem with having some of these tests failing - 
no Hurd special cases in this script - unless and until we decide that a 
particular Hurd special case in this script is appropriate.  That was how 
we handled many architecture-specific fixes for header problems shown by 
these tests for GNU/Linux (some of these tests failed on some 
architectures for some time); I think it's how we should handle them for 
Hurd.  When individual headers are fixed, the number of failures may go 
down.
