Am I pushy? It is actually up to you when you close the bug. It is just a
reminder. Some people like to close bugs :)

I learned about this after filling this bugs. Next time.

Yes. I attached one. I switched libhal-dev to !hurd-i386 instead of
linux-any. It looks like libhal-dev is available on kfreebsd-*. I did a
test build on kfreebsd-amd64 and it seems to work. The build log is at
[0] if you want to take a look.
