If both instances are run on the same system, by the same user and output
to the same display they should share a license. I don't actually have 5.4
to test that version, but I can run 5.3 and 6.0, and 5.5 and 6.0
simultaneously and it only uses the "6" floating licenses of a single
instance of IDL.

At least that is the case with floating licenses, I'm not sure about node
locked licenses.
