Simultaneous Folder Actions?

I have an AppleShare IP server set up, and every morning files get
FTP'd into several folders, where folder actions trigger and the files
get processed. However, if files arrive in two folders at the same
time, only one of the folder actions gets processed, the other does
not. If files arrive at different times, then all works normally.

The server is a G3 running OS 9.1 and AppleShare IP 6.3.3, all the
latest software updates, etc.

The folders are set as pop-ups at the bottom of the screen. If I
manually move a file out and back in, the script executes just fine.

Is this some know issue with folder actions not noticing that another
folder was updated at the same time? I'm rather stumped by this one...
