Sigh. The Hurd home page says "GNU/Hurd.. is completely self-contained (you can compile all parts of it using GNU itself)." It also says "It is not ready for production use". BSD (whether OpenBSD or any other flavor) is not Linux or anything else like that. It is a complete operating system, in use in production in many places. If you think that compiling bits of it on another operating system is dipping your toe in the water, so be it. You will miss out on the joy of using a proper UNIX. But beware: you will actually be dipping your toe in sulphuric acid, so enjoy the pain, and be aware that no-one will want to help afterwards (you have had lots of help so far: all those of us saying "don't do it". With reason.) No further comment Tom
