Since Bering runs from a ram disk and the boot file system is
typically not mounted except during package backups, it *seems*
like you should be okay unless you try to back up two instances
simulaneously (or perform other simultaneous write operations to
/dev/ubd0).  It also seems like you could overwrite a package
backup from one instance with a later backup from a second
instance (which may be desirable, depending on what you are
trying to accomplish).  All that is untested speculation though.
