What happens if I have two postgresql clusters running on the same server each with a tablespace pointing at the same location?

I have a production server, where I intend to move some tables to a second tablespace. I have a development/qa server which has multiple clusters running, each with a restore from the production server.

Thanks in advance,
Nate

Pointing multiple clusters to the same tablespace is a very bad idea. You run the risk of overwriting a file with the same name from a different cluster.
Think of Ghostbusters ->"Don't cross the streams"!.
There is no reason why you cannot have separate directories for each cluster/tablespace, so why ask for trouble?
