I don't think two instances of Hobo in the same application will work. We do have a couple of class variables that will probably conflict, as well as the generation problem you noticed. Probably not a lot of work to fix up, but nobody's needed it before, and the design of Hobo predates engines.
My question is why? What do you want to do? Have you seen Hobo subsites? I think subsites are you want. It's quite common for people to have a "front" subsite which generates into the root and then an "admin" subsite which generates into app/views/admin/*/* and app/controllers/admin/* If you need even more separation, you can always run two different Hobo applications on the same server. As far as I can tell, the only real difference between two separate apps and using two engines in the same app is that in the former you use the server to route to the two apps whereas the latter uses rack to route between the two engines.
