The platform installer is supposed to erase previous platform editions before it installs itself.
I would consider that a serious bug. The Haskell Platform is not like a standard user application, where it would be reasonable to have only one version installed at a time. If you are a software developer, it is frequently essential to have several different versions of the development environment (compiler + libraries) installed simultaneously, so that you can adequately support users who have different versions of your own software.
