I am way out of my depth here, but would it matter that on the hurd pthread is not in glibc? https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2022-10/msg00069.html > > Note: Currently, trying to cross‐build packages from core‐updates for the Hurd > will fail while compiling glibc, since the Hurd package is too outdated for > that > version of glibc. > > I’ll attach a diff (for core-updates) with the updated Hurd packages to this > email.
