I have often upgraded other X terms, window managers and several other X
clients even while I currently using them (the previous version). (For
example, I often do coding on blackbox and reinstall blackbox while I am
using blackbox.)

I don't use Eterm, but I am pretty sure that it shouldn't matter.
