Actually, this is just a warning message that should really not be displayed
normally
(i.e. it's a minor bug that the message is displayed here). It just means
that the second
emulator will use port 5556 as its console number (while the first one will
use 5554)

No, ignore the message, everything should work correctly in each emulator.

adb -s emulator-5554 install <package> to upload to the first emulator
adb -s emulator-5556 install <package> to upload to the second one

the "-s <serial>" option is used by adb to target a given device by its
"serial number"
for emulators, the serial number is 'emulator-<port>', where <port> is the
console
control port that is also displayed in the emulator's window title.

Ant is a very complex beast :-) I don't know how one can specify a target
emulator from the command-line. There should be a way because the ADT plugin
does this properly and invokes Ant internally. Sorry, I can't help you right
now
but will try to have a look at it.
