You need some way to share the load and you also need to make sure things are stable. The TI/National data sheet doesn't show anything about paralleling regulators. The AD data sheet shows 2 ft of #18 wire between each regulator and the load. I'm not enough of an analog guru to reverse engineer that setup and figure out the stability constraints and transfer them to 78xx type devices. -- These are my opinions.
