They certainly should not have the same number.  The Hurd numbers are
determined by magic comments in libc/manual/errno.texi; it appears that
someone added some codes to errno.texi with magic comments and picked some
random numbers for them (probably Linux numbers) instead of omitting them.
That needs to be fixed.  Can you compare all the numbers in errno.texi with
those that existing Hurd binaries were really using, and assign unused
numbers to any excess errno codes the Hurd didn't previously have?
