I guess somehow it got dropped on your system, and reinstalling the hurd
package won't help since we are supposed to add the diversion on
installation only, to let the admin change the configuration. You can
restore the diversion with:

dpkg-divert --package hurd --add --rename --divert /usr/bin/gcore-gdb /usr/bin/gcore
