Hmmmm. At least talk (which admittedly doesn't come in watapps.zip, but is
still based on WATTCP) doesn't require class 1, but works with class 6.

Ok, it seems there wasn't ever any contention over this, because EPPPD is
class 1.

Using them concurrently requires the use of pktmux, with varying degrees of
success. Using them separately (but without starting a new instance of the
driver) only requires that they can run over the same class driver. If I'm
right that some (many?) WATTCP apps can use class 6, everything should work
even with dosppp05.
