This seems pretty illogical if you follow that line of thinking out a little
further.  Would you expect it to be more secure if you ran one system on
linux, apache, mod_foo and the other on bsd, lighty, and mod_bar ?  Best to
through your support behind one complete system (sounds like postgresql from
previous postings) that can do the job and become an expert in making that
system secure.
