The bigger question is why ignore 'contexts' to run multiple instances?
Contexts give you out of the box ability to route certain calls to
certain places for independant IVR systems, independant voicemail,
independant channel grouping, etc.

You can vhost asterisk in this way quite easily without the extra
overhead of extra instances.  The only thing you have to be careful of
is naming collisions (hint prefix or postfix names with some company
identifier eg  [Cust1-incoming]).  Gotta be careful when doing this so
that all 'goto' and similar are rewritten as well if the customer has
the ability to create raw entries (if done via a tool, web or otherwise
the tool could make sure this doesnt happen).
