I am not saying the same version of the same Makefile, obviously bugs  
should be fixed, and this Makefile can be, should be, and is often  
updated.  What made the current thing hard to fix?  This HURD/kFreeBSD  
build issue was going to be fixed upstream anyway, so I don't see the  
need to have a Debian-specific fix.
