they would conflict so you can't have them both installed int he usual manor. I think it's possible to use the ports system to build things with different targets w/o much trouble but have never had to do it, check the manual pages.


PS:

I don't believe in multiple versions installed of the same thing unless having to test a development release along side a stable install (which I do not like doing on an otherwise stable machine!). And things like combing PHP4 and PHP5 for a 'grace period' for people to change their scripts before dropping the old version.
