Response from @tgodzik

Thanks for reporting! This is a current limitation of Bloop, but we are actually working on making it possible to use multiple Bloop servers on one machine.

bloop support BLOOP_PORT environemnt to start multiple servers with different port. How about let metals use this feature to start and communicate with bloop through an environement variable.
