I suppose that 128 MiB is not enough memory for the Hurd. :( I wish I could be more helpful.

Hum... while writing this I discovered that the problem only happens if I omit the the -m 1G parameter to qemu-system-i386. Default is 128 MiB. Oh well, writing this message, that could maybe help others making the same mistake. Maybe, it could give a more appropriate message too.
