What do you mean by "reinstates"? I'm not sure there's a need to
reference this obsolete commit.

This #:modules argument is already the default, and it's not overridden
by the inherited 'glibc' package, so I think it's not needed here.

Did you intend to omit 'cf', the inherited configure-flags from 'glibc'?
Also, you're passing only one argument to 'append', making it a no-op.
Looking at the configure-flags for 'glibc', most of them look desirable
on Hurd, but some of them don't. The ones that look desirable are:
"--enable-add-ons"
"--sysconfdir=/etc"
"libc_cv_localedir=/run/current-system/locale"
(string-append "BASH_SHELL="
(assoc-ref %build-inputs "bash")
"/bin/bash")
"libc_cv_ssp=no"
The ones that we probably want to remove are:
(string-append "--with-headers="
(assoc-ref %build-inputs "linux-headers")
"/include")
"--enable-kernel=2.6.32"
How about this: (untested)
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
((#:configure-flags original-configure-flags)
`(list "--host=i686-pc-gnu"
;; nscd fails to build for GNU/Hurd:
;; <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2014-07/msg00006.html>.
;; Disable it.
"--disable-nscd"
,@(filter (lambda (flag)
(not (or (string-prefix? "--with-headers=" flag)
(string-prefix? "--enable-kernel=" flag))))
original-configure-flags)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Better to use 'inputs' not '%build-inputs' here. Also, you should also
pass "--force" to 'patch', and check the result status for errors.
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(unless (zero? (system*
"patch" "--force" "-p1" "-i"
(assoc-ref inputs "patch/libpthread-patch")))
(error "patch/libpthread-patch failed"))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Making it world-writable seems excessive. How about #o644 ?
> + (copy-recursively "libpthread/sysdeps/generic/bits" "bits"))
Add a #t to the end here, since 'copy-recursively' doesn't return
anything in particular.
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(copy-recursively "libpthread/sysdeps/generic/bits" "bits")
#t)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Can you make these changes, see if things still work, and then post an
updated patch?
Thanks for working on this!
