While updating the gettext package, which now has build-depends

noticed the [linux-any] restrictions in debian/control.
Are those restrictions really needed?
IIRC they were for kfreebsd.
Apparently the packages do exist for all architectures,
including the Hurd:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=acl
https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=attr
so if they are not usable, I'd like to know.
I don't know what happens if they're enabled on hurd (which I think is
now the only platform affected?) If someone reports that coreutils works
does something useful built that way on hurd I'm happy to make the
change.
