The grepping doesn't tell us whether those programs are using the interface
in a way that's actually useful (either at all or specifically in the Hurd
context).  If the motivation is just to get more sloppily-written programs
to compile out of the box, then a header that defines away the functions as
no-op always-fail or no-op pretend-to-succeed or something else distinct
from "implement as a faithful emulation of Linux usage regardless of the
sensibility of such usage on the Hurd" could well be the most useful thing.
