Hello,
I would like to reserve one primary partition for Windows XP. This way, I'll run out of primary partition in /dev/hda, because I prefer to make the /boot partitions primary.

I wouldn't do that if I was you; you may find that each distribution screws up the other's bootloader at kernel update time. Given that 100MB is ample for a /boot partition, is there any particular reason why you want to share them rather than have two?
P.S. Swap partitions aren't mounted on /swp...
