Thanks for that Nancy. I don't see ByRole as my primary issue necessarily, more I'm afraid it's symptomatic of the real issue that perhaps sharing the user/1 account is the only sensible thing to do prior to Drupal 7 where there actually is an admin role.

I don't really recommend it, but on every site I've worked on with multiple top-level admins, they share the user/1 account. But, if ByRole is your primary issue, then open a feature request with that module.

I was asked to set up multiple admin accounts on a D6 site and created new users and gave them all the permissions available on the perm matrix. However not only is this a bit cumbersome and error prone, especially with multiple administrators :-) it also appears to not always work; ie. I've just realized that the view/edit permissions checkboxes provided on node edits by the node privacy byrole module is only available to user 1 and not my other admin account.
Is there a recommended workaround, short of when we eventually upgrade to D7?
