Hi.You're right, on the face of it it does not seem to make a lot of sense. You should be able easily to run 2 instances of Apache from the same binaries.
But I think that what Jet is trying to tell you, is that that if you do that, you will have problems with the standard system Apache start and stop scripts, like /etc/init.d/apache2.
These scripts use for example the command "killall", which will indiscriminately kill all instances of the same binary program running at that time if it has the same name (meaning your first and your second apache, all at the same time), and you will not be able to select the one or the other. (Even if you copy the script /etc/init.d/apache2 to /etc/init.d/apache2b and call them separately. Each copy will kill all Apache's).
So, if you start 2 instances of Apache from the same binary, you will need to modify a series of other scripts in order to avoid that.
Copying the binary and give it another name may be easier.
