You can use the same swap space, though not at the same time.
At the same time??
if you run two distros on a dual cpu machine at the same time (one distro per cpu), you will need two separate swap partitions
When I had two distros on my Linux box (single cpu, though), I made them share a single swap space. Hey Kenneth, can you explain how you would allocate the two swap spaces to the two different cpu's ? I have never worked on a SMP machine myself and its intriguing.
