Dear Maintainer,

Netsurf fails to build from source on the Hurd due to several common issues on
that platform.

The attached patch fixes those issues and has been reported upstream with bug
ID 0002824 (https://bugs.netsurf-browser.org/mantis/view.php?id=2824). That bug
report has been open for a year now and it has not been acknowledged.
Would you consider applying the patch on the Debian package to allow building
on the Hurd?

Many thanks,
João
