I run each port separately, close to as you have described.  I do it
this way so I can run each as a daemontools service.  I then have a
separate daemontools service script that periodically checks each
mongrel for functionality and terms/kills it if needed.  Its a nice
setup and allows me to not worry about anything being down for more
than a minute or so.  Probably overkill for general needs though.
