When the user starts a second ERC session to the same host / port, the
first one will be clobbered and stop communicating.

Hi,

Thank you for your message. My "clobbered" what precisely do you 
mean?
Is the buffer broken, or is the process being hung? This is good
information for us to have.

Also, if you could share your configuration you have defined for 
ERC
that would be quite helpful.

Best,

Hello and thanks for your response.

By "clobbered", I mean that the original session (and all channels
associated with it) stops updating. I also mean that host:port pairs seem
to be the internal key for mapping session data structures, as seen below.

As  for my configuration, I can prove that it's not germane:

Start emacs with no config.

n.b.: the exact usernames in the following snippets are not important, just
that they are different.
----
$ emacs -Q

M-x erc RET
irc.freenode.net RET
6667 RET
testuser1 RET

----

So far, so good. We have a session.

----

M-x erc RET
irc.freenode.net RET
6667 RET
testuser2 RET

----

You should notice that the 'freenode' buffer has been reused and that the
original session cannot be reached. My guess is that this is an original
ERC design limitation, but it probably ought to be addressed.

Yup, confirmed.

PS Please give a meaningful subject line to your future bug reports.
PPS Please don't top post.

It looks like it does this on purpose: It a server buffer exists, and
it's connected to the server you're using, then it's reused:

    ;; if buf-name is taken by a different connection (or by something !erc)
    ;; then see if "buf-name/server" meets the same criteria
    (dolist (candidate (list buf-name (concat buf-name "/" server)))
      (if (and (not buffer-name)
               erc-reuse-buffers
               (or (not (get-buffer candidate))
                   (or target
                       (with-current-buffer (get-buffer candidate)
                         (and (erc-server-buffer-p)
                              (not (erc-server-process-alive)))))
                   (with-current-buffer (get-buffer candidate)
                     (and (string= erc-session-server server)
                          (erc-port-equal erc-session-port port)))))
          (setq buffer-name candidate)))

If you don't want this, then erc-reuse-buffers should be set to nil,
apparently.

So this doesn't seem to be a bug, and I'm closing this bug report.
