First of all, hfsprogs is a different package from hfsutils, despite the similarity in the names.
Second, usually the program that shows any "filesystem is dirty" and that it will be mounted read-only is the kernel hfsplus module. Third, filesystems that are already dirty when they are mounted is a signal of a problem somewhere else. Probably the unmounting of them is not done correctly. As far as I can see, this bug is invalidly reported against hfsprogs (and also grub). It would have something to do with the initial scripts.
