The suggestion is that a new version of PHP may not work with some older FB
clients. I've asked on the support list for some feedback on multiple copies
of the client. As far as I am concerned I expect everything to loop through
the one client on a machine but that may be a error. Certainly I know that I
need to take care on updating clients when I update a server!

I think that is more about ensuring we all have the correct information. And I
am quite happy to admit that my 'old school' experiences and information may
well be out of date. The current setup is working fine for me and giving no
problems on site but some of the statements being made would suggest that I
SHOULD be seeing problems :(
