Ok, I finally spent some quality time with bbmap...
Here are the changes to make it work with hobbit:

replace the files in the attached archive.  The files included are:
fullstatusreturn.pl - new file that uses the hobbit status command to
determine state.
initiate.php and initiatesubmap.php - fixed a bug in these files
($output spelled as $ouput once)
statusbbgen.sh - reconfigured to use hobbit-style bbgen parameters
status.php - generated new copy of hobbitserver.cfg instead of trying to
pass BBHOST as an environmental variable.
serialize.php - I don't remember what I changed, but it's got a recent
modification date, so I've probably done something.

Then:

change globalmap.cfg to point to the new fullstatusreturn.pl file
(instead of .sh)

; what is the script to test status (in case better test can be done)
statusreturn = /var/www/bbmap/fullstatusreturn.pl
; slower: statusreturn = /usr/local/bb/www/map2/statusreturn.sh
; script to generate the bb4 page with bbgen (need bbgen 2.5)
bbgen = /var/www/bbmap/statusbbgen.sh

copy /var/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg to ...bbmap/tmp/, and
remove the BBHOST= line in the copy.
