I have confirmed that the following combinations, first with your code
and then, with my new patches, work:
> new gnumach -> new hurd's serverboot -> new hurd
Check.
> new gnumach -> old hurd's serverboot -> old hurd
Check.
> old gnumach -> new hurd's serverboot -> new hurd
Check.
> new gnumach -> old boot script -> old hurd
> any gnumach -> new hurd's serverboot -> old hurd
Check.
> [subhurd] new hurd's boot -> old boot script -> old hurd
Check. However, I fail to see why we even want to be compatible here;
one can easily use the new Hurd's boot with the new boot script to
boot an old Hurd. And not to mention that this feature is (currently)
only used by developers and on top of that, pollutes the variable name
space.
> [subhurd] new hurd's boot -> new boot script -> new hurd
Check.
The patches:
First, GNU Mach. There are two errors in determining the
compatibility case: first, we need to also ignore trailing newlines;
second, in the case where there are multiple modules, the logic was
backwards. This patch also corrects the output: I have no clue what
the padding with spaces was all about, however, it seems to me to be
completely superfluous; the output is now consistent with other
messages.

* kernel/bootstrap.c (bootstrap_create): When checking for
compatability mode, ignore both trailing spaces and new lines.
Set P to non-zero in the non-compatability case.
Fix the output.

The Hurd proper:
In boot, we incorrectly setup the default kernel_command_line. This
really affects us now that init now uses ARGP_IN_ORDER. Additionally,
we must set the boot script variables based on the kernel command
line.

* boot.c (main): Do not prepend our program invocation name to
the default kernel command line.
Set the boot script variables based on KERNEL_COMMAND_LINE.
