Re: [Bug-tar] Support for Hurd translators

[Sergey Poznyakoff]

Thanks, Marko.

A couple of notices:

* Inclusions of <hurd.h> should be protected by #ifdef #endif
* A backup definition of O_NOTRANS (#define O_NOTRANS 0) should be
  provided for non-Hurd systems.
* The system-dependent parts (set_translator,read_trans) should go to
  system.c and should also be protected by #ifdefs.
* There should be a code in configure.ac that would detect the presence
  of hurd.h and the hurd-specific calls (mach_port_deallocate,
  mach_task_self).

I'll be able to test the code on the live Hurd machine by the end of
this week.

Regards,
Sergey
