The hputils stuff is old (a way to access HFS+ filesystems before the kernel support was available) and I limit my use of it to hpmount followed by an immediate hpumount (only when necessary to reset the consistency bits, and only after doing a consistency check under MacOS). From the error message you report, though, your filesystem may have already been hosed when you did the hpmount.
