That is going to cause problems. You either need to run each in a separate
directory with a separate book.bin and position.bin file, or else run with
"learn=0" and accept the potential duplicate games that will happen. If you let
two share a common book, things will probably get broken when both update it for
learning without properly knowing to lock things to prevent screwed up
updates...
