Well, the answer is that it is not intended to be possible, there is
no code to manage more than one execute process.  Maybe some old
version(s) (1.26 is 5 years ago, who remembers ... well ok github
does, but I'm not an archeologist :) had a bug that allowed it, and
maybe the behaviour is different on windows, but that is not the
intention.
