I'd install bucardo twice, in two different directories, to make sure things
stayed separate.

Here's the key, I'd say. You don't need multiple instances of Bucardo just to
replicate two separate databases. Simply add the new source and destination
databases to your existing bucardo setup (e.g. bucardo_ctl add db ...), add
the objects you want to replicate, and add another sync.
