The plan is that the glibc ABI should be the same on Hurd and Linux
(on each hardware platform). Then as long as a program doesn't depend
on services outside of glibc (like direct linux syscalls, mach
syscalls, open("/proc/something/or/other"), etc, the same binaries
will work on both systems.
But we're not there yet, as far as I know.
