Yes, you'd use *META-DISPATCHER* then.  Note that there are some parts
of Hunchentoot (for example logging and error handling) that are
currently controlled by global variables which should actually be
per-server switches.  You'll find some discussions related to this in
the mailing list archive.  This is a remnant of Hunchentoot's heritage
from a single-server library (TBNL).  Several users have announced to
send patches to fix this but haven't sent anything yet.  I'll probably
clean this up one day, but it's not a big issue for me as I virtually
never use multiple servers in one image.
