I thought there was no support for HFS standard in Leopard

Why would you think that?

Go do a 'man mount' in Terminal. There be lots of file systems supported there.

Perhaps you're confusing general file system support with the requirement that the OS wants the boot volume to be HFS+?

But when I hooked up this '94 powerbook 520c in SCSI disk mode to my G4 Tower with its add=on SCSI card, no can mount it in Leopard, have to boot Tiger from backup then it works.

That's a SCSI support issue; nothing to do with the file system on the drive. Old fashioned SCSI support seems to be a bit broken in Leopard and Snow Leopard. I've run into a number of issues. "Old fashioned" because you must keep in mind that Firewire is actually a form of SCSI-3.
