This is in fact two bugs: First, glibc headers need to define those symbols,
irregardless where they are implemented and supported or not.  So please
file a bug against glibc.  It would be nice to include all missing symbols
from termios there.

Then we should implement them in the term translator.  You could do it, it
isn't too hard, especially something like OCRNL.  This is an independent bug
against the Hurd, I will add it to the task list.

Thanks,
Marcus
