I doubt it. However, Daniel indicated here:

that he would create a branch for that patch this weekend, and I suggest
trying that branch. As a Savannah upgrade is in progress, you may have
to wait before it's available; see:

Daniel,
What is the status of your branch containing the portable dumper? Nothing so far
in http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git
Emacs still FTBFS miserably on GNU/Hurd, both old (previously building) versions
as new ones. The latest successful build was for Debian version 2.24+1-5, in Nov
28 2015, more than a year ago :(
