I know this sounds silly, but does it mess up the switching process when
a switch learns the same MAC on two different VLANs? I have an
incredibly long and detailed story behind my asking this question, but I
won't bore everyone.

I mean, do switches keep separate CAM tables per VLAN? Or is there one
large shared CAM table? Where can I find more info on precisely how
these switches create and operate the CAM tables and the switching
process? (In particular the 4000/4500 and 6500 switches, both with IOS,
no CatOS)

TIA
Mike W.
