This is _definitely_ not the cause of the problem I am
experiencing.  Wnnstat reports the following when I have six
kterm windows and one instance of Emacs open, all of which are
toggled to Japanese input mode:

[bennett@example.com bennett]$ /usr/local/sbin/wnnstat
ユーザ名:ホスト名       (ソケットNo.)   環境番号
bennett:gulliver                (0)             0 
[bennett@example.com bennett]$ 

The "connections" that are limited are client _machine_
connections, not X-client connections.  Ergo, a single _user_ is
unlikely to find himself hampered by hardwired limitations in the
conversion server, provided he or she stays within the terms of
the license and doesn't throw the system open to all and sundry.

In any case, I have no problems _connecting_ to the server; it is
only gakushu that fails, and that only when the server is
accessed via Kinput2.

I haven't tried this, but the answer is going to be "no"; as I
think I explained (but not very clearly) in the earlier post, I
have tested gakushu under Kinput2 when Emacs was not running at
all.  The problem here is not a conflict between processes; it is
that the _server_ behaves differently when accessed by two
different methods, when it should not.

Cheers,
