Hi, I attach the solution I have been working on wrt. selecting
appropriate applets for Hurd. Though it's work in progress, you may
want to have a look and reuse some of it.

In short:
  * the target OS is detected using preprocessor macros
  * each OS defines HAVE_* on os/<system>/Config.in to enable the
relevant applets/options

I guess we might want to merge our two approaches: for instance your
TARGET_MINGW32 would cause HAVE_POSIX and HAVE_UNIX variables not to
be selected, and you could disable the remaining applets with "depends
on !TARGET_MINGW32". This would avoid lists of "!TARGET_X && !TARGET_Y
&& ..." as dependencies of innocent applets if more systems were to be
added.

Of course, in any case, I would update my stuff to match whatever is merged in.
