I didn't know about it. I followed my old notes which said that
the place to look for scsh is
ftp://ftp-swiss.ai.mit.edu/pub/su/scsh/scsh.tar.gz, which in turn was
a symlink to scsh-0.5.3.tar.gz, the newest file in that directory.
Perhaps you can get someone at mit to update the README file there?

I'll try scsh-0.6.2 next. But as long as scsh uses only posix and
glibc features, the difference between hurd and linux are quite small.
