That should be fine.  Just take the defaults (i.e. ensure that 1.x and 2.x
are installed in different directories, use different TCP ports, use
different UNIX sockets) and you'll be fine.

You can then use

	-L/usr/local/Hughes/lib -lmsql
or
	-L/usr/local/Minerva/lib -lmsql

depending if you want to link against the 1.x or 2.x lib in your app.
