Wouldn't this be better served by creating a script that fetches a
stable version of each product and prividing a place where they can be
downloaded from?

It keeps you from having to customize yet allows you to have a fixed
point to work around.

Then, you can update portions of it as needed.

This is always better served when there are stable versions being
distributed, which is currently the 1.x version of Harbour.

And when 2.x is released, you once again have a stable version to work
with.

With that in mind, would a better solution be to move quickly as
possible to a stable 2.0 Harbour release? This would be good for all
parties involved. Grabbing an unstable version of Harbour to make some
other process stable is very work intensive and counterproductive in the
long run.
