Welcome to LQ. .. .. ..
No, it is not an advantage to mix the patches / extra files on a single ns2.
Much better to have two ( or more ) optimized for the special functions.
1) The patches are meant for a specific version.
2) And may be the compiled binary ( ns ) cannot work with the mixed files.
Example :
A mobiwan patched ns (2.33) cannot handle default files, only "mobiwan.tcl".
It is no problem having two or more ns-allinone-2.xx at the same time.
I have eight different on this system : /home/knudfl/ns2/ns-allinone-2.xx/.
One is an LTE patched ns-2.29.3 .
To Tinkster - I posted in both English AND French because I wasn't sure if the OP knew english or not good enough to edit his post to reflect what I asked him. Why is it wrong to do the right thing? I really need to hear this one...

Hi Josh,
Shhttt, don't upset the mod(s). Same thing was done to me for being polite and trying to help, and after sending a PM to the mod asking for some explanation not even got a reply. Not mentioning when or who to keep a low profile.

It's like the song I guess, silence is golden or something like that. I'm not in a hurry anymore, after waiting months (if I'm not mistaking) for an answer to my PM. Already formed my opinion about that one particular person. Moving on. Not worth the trouble.
Sh*t happens in the virtual world a lot more than in real life. Difference is it would be dealt with differently in real life, right? LOL (no mod_edit available in real life is there?).
