I have a hurd build in qemu existing hurd environment.But thought of trying to cross compile it in ubuntu
>Also, please indicate exactly what source you are using: did you 'git >clone' or used the Debian package? Which revision did you use? I used git clone for cross compilation. But inside hurd used debian package which is build properly.
