I assume you've tried the easy stuff... separate the two statements with
some additional cf-lf, add a useless/redundant statement in between the two 
registrations, move one of them to the bottom of the config file, 
"database show" to ensure entries are accurate, etc, etc.

(I had a similar problem months ago that involved an incorrect /IAX entry
in the database. If I recall correctly, iaxtel changed IP addresses or
something like that. At that time, I didn't know some of these things were
actually stored in the database, and no one responded on the list to my
question. If I would have simply deleted the database entry (assuming I
knew it was there in the first place), my problem would have been fixed.)
