No, as mentioned the second was "the current server", overriding
the first. And when the second exits, it doesn't magically re-enable
the first.
So when starting the second (in Emacs-22), the first server is neutered,
but without even knowing it. In Emacs-22 it was a problem, but a fairly
minor one. With "emacs --daemon" this is now a much more serious
problem since if the daemon is thus neutered it will keep running
without the user having any way to access it: it can only look for it in
`ps' and kill it.
