Running two copies of mysqld in one single machine *HAS* its purpose.
"What if, for whatever reason, mysqld died?"
I personally havent seen mysqld died on me, but on a rare occasion,
the database got corrupted and it made mysql useless.
but if I made my application to be a bit more intelligent and either
communicate with two mysqld or use a backup database file.... you
know what i mean.
