? Which version of crosshurd have you used?

The native-install script starts with *exactly* what is supposed to make
pipes work:

  settrans -c /servers/socket/1 /hurd/pflocal

we'd need to figure out why this doesn't work in your case.

You could run 

bash -x /native-install

so we get to know exactly what it manages to do and not do.
