We do it like that. Each dev has his own working copy (on his own pc) to develop in, and we have a single working copy on our release buildmachine. Devs take rotations to make those release builds (basically running ant, and notifying testers that a new build is ready). We each make the build with our own user account, so the working copy is effectively "shared" (though not used concurrently).

Using a single WC concurrently with different users like a very bad idea, as others already commented.
