Let me clarify a bit:

Add gcc-boot0-hurd, but with the snippet using guile instead of
coreutils-boot0. Then in (%boot1-inputs) the code gets changed from
("gcc" ,gcc-boot0) to (untested)
("gcc" ,(if (target-hurd?)
            gcc-boot0-hurd
            gcc-boot0))

And then similarly through the rest of gnu/packages/commencement.
