OK. I found something but nothing serious. Following your steps exactly as
above I could notice that, when adding the second engine, its name "yyy"
doesn't get into the tab title below the main panel, which stays as the
default "Qsynth2".

However this buglet only affects tab presentation; the engine really gets
its due name, which is "yyy". All other engine parameters stay unchanged.
Of course, there's the obvious and immediate solution to this buglet: just
call setup again and make some workaround changes to let the dialog be
accepted again.

Sure I'll fix this ASAP, but I guess that's not the real problem, is it?

P.S. I've testing on my opensuse 10.1 boxes, either as a regular user or
as root. Same behavior, no problem besides that.
