Hi,
Please add support for GNU/Hurd. I have successfully built firefox
45.0.2-1 from source by applying this patch, which I have also forwarded
upstream at the above address. Given its non-invasive nature, merely
adding some #define's and #ifdef's that will only ever be relevant on
GNU/Hurd, it would be good to have this in Debian, even if upstream is
slow or unreceptive.

Regards,
James
