No, you don't have to do it like this.  There are certainly more
intelligent ways to do it.  I'd use something like

  (lambda (server)
    (case (server-local-port server)
      (3001 *dispatch-table1*)
      (3002 *dispatch-table2*)))

Did you read my last reply?

If there's a feature in an open source project you want to have that's
not provided, you can hack it yourself and send a patch, or you can
pay someone else to do it, or you can complain about it on the mailing
list.  You can try to figure out yourself which of these alternatives
is the most promising.
