1) try it now, let me know if there are any errors 2) I don't know exactly how boot0hfs is setup to boot. I'd have to check the source. If you want to, you can always change the default build by modifying the .config file or running make config.

1. Compilation works fine now. 2. The difference between boot0 and boot0hfs. boot0 searches for boot1h on the first active partition. writes boot0hfs to the first 440 bytes of the MBR so as boot0hfs searches for boot1h on the first partition, regardless of active flag. After doing some test, I get boot0hfs with the default config, and get boot0 with disabled "boot0 HFS prefered". Need to compile the code twice, and can't get by script automatically. The boot0 file is still useful for more than two primary HFS+ partitions. May we get both boot0 and boot0hfs with once compilation, and needn't to "make config" manually again? Thanks for your reply.

I'll try to think of an easy way to make it so both are compiled (without coping boot0.s to boot0hfs.s). Witht eh makefile changes there is no good way to do it, at least not yet.
