Has anyone set up tandem axes in EMC2?  Getting two servo axes 
to run in parallel isn't too hard to do in hal, although what 
you do with two following errors is something to consider.

But, the tricky part is getting them homed into proper alignment.

(If you don't know the term, a tandem axis is one with two 
parallel linear drives, such as on the two ends of a gantry.
These are capable of completely independent motion, and only the 
CNC control keeps them parallel.)
