Thanks for the report Petr. Simply copying the hints file from linux to another name isn't going to help.
It does help. The sed command is really sufficient.
It would help if you could provide more details on the failure to build. The best is if you can provide a full dump of the build process output.

The configuration hints files provide needed information for Parrot to know how to compile on a particular platform, so either kFreeBSD is exactly the same as linux (and should use the same hints file not a copy of it under a different name),
They (Linux and GNU/kFreeBSD) are not the same, but the current content of hint file could be same. They both use the same gcc, same binutils, same glibc. The only kernel is totally different. May be it would be better to name the hint file "glibc.pm" and share it between linux, GNU/kFreeBSD and hurd.
