Ok, that's where I am at too.  I feel a little silly for just having
noticed a couple days ago that you can run "make check" when
cross-compiling and it will build all the programs and not run them.  
I found some bugs myself just doing that.

If you have a hurd, you could nfs-mount your libc build directory from
linux and run make check (maybe), or copy test programs over.  Some of the
hairier tests are driven by scripts and so forth that would be a pain to
find all of to copy over, but I'm mostly interested in the dynamic linker
tests from elf/, which are not hard to copy over along with all their test
.so files.
