Being Mosaic nonfree software that depends on other nonfree software (motif), I don't really think it's a good idea to support it with a Hurd port or a package inside Debian.
Please take a look at the Debian Free Software Guidelines:
http://www.debian.org/social_contract.html#guidelines
Quoting mosaic's COPYRIGHT file:
"The UI grants you (hereafter, Licensee) a license to use the Software for academic, research and internal business purposes only, [..]"
Breaks DFSG #6
[..] without a fee.
Breaks DFSG #1
"if Licensee distributes any derivative work based on or derived from the Software, then Licensee will (1) notify NCSA regarding its distribution of the derivative work, and (2) clearly notify users that such derivative work is a modified version and not the original NCSA Mosaic distributed by the UI."
Breaks DFSG #3
This license is completely against our principles. Please don't support it, there are lots of free browsers in Debian we can port to the GNU Hurd.
Issue 'apt-get search --names-only browser' for a full list.
