Dear Maintainer,

As per #678358 it is known that Hurd defines AF_LINK but does not
provide the corresponding functionality. Please look for any
Hurd -specific bugs that this might causing. Also when #678358
finally gets fixed please try to make sure that this code tests for
AF_LINK rather than using platform checks.
