Yes, there is a /hurd/exec, and I have a /server directory (and
there is a 0 byte exec file in it). In fact I dumped most of my hurd
partition to CD just to see what would happen if I ever got it to boot.

Just for reference, when iso9660fs boots for real, it starts to
barf in libstore/open.c after it gets called from store_parsed_open().
Or it probably barfs here -- this is where I got tired of the "debug by
printf" method and started looking towards gdb and "boot". If true, that
probably narrows it down to either file_name_lookup() or store_create()
that fails.
