Details:

On GNU/Hurd, procfs is optional -- the system works just as well without it. 
Debian's hurd-i386 buildds are configured with procfs but for some reason from
time to time the test (as well as the configure test for procfs) fails.  See
https://lists.debian.org/debian-hurd/2018/02/msg00017.html for details.

As this method is a no-op if neither procfs nor sysctlbyname are available I'd
suggest to not compile/run the test if these conditions are not met.  Patch
attached.
