Maybe (to avoid server/bbgen crash), bbgen could use the "ping" command agains the listed servers, to be sure it's a hobbitd server and not a BB or BB variant.

From Henrik's explanation it seems that there was no crash, just a quirk resulting from my mixing Hobbit and Big Brother servers. Adding that behaviour to the hobbitserver.cfg manpage should be enough, I think.

"If both Big Brother and Hobbit servers are listed by BBDISPLAYS, the first address must be a Hobbit server."

Or something to that effect.
