QEMU has the same issue, I've described that in my first message. And
Hurd has networking.  It works out of the box on Debian GNU/Hurd
2019, and it's 2021.

I booted again with fresh copy of the image without the "-snapshot"
parameter, and herd was working.  But there was again no network and
after reboot herd stopped working too.
