I'd rather prefer to wait for 2.3.1.  This looks like a patch which can
have many hidden possibilites to break something.

I know that Hurd has problems.  But exported symbols temporarily should
be able to fix that, right?  And it also doesn't introduce any permanent
ABI damage.  So I'd rather go this way unless you prefer to not change
the code and declare 2.3.1 as the first release usable for Hurd.
