That's possible, but it requires separate spool and configuration
directories (--prefix= and --sysconfdir=, perhaps also --spooldir= at
/configure time) and that one of these servers uses either a different
port or IP address (IP aliases and binding the individual installations
to distinct addresses rather than the default "any" address come to
mind).
