Yes, that's what the -k is for, it keeps the old translator running.
Also, without specifying -a, settrans only stores the translator record,
which does not change.  -c creates the node, which already exists.  All
in all this was just bad advice.

Seems to work fine here:

teythoon@hurdbox ~ % cd /tmp
teythoon@hurdbox /tmp % settrans -ac 1 /hurd/pflocal
teythoon@hurdbox /tmp % remap /servers/socket/1 /tmp/1 -- /bin/bash -c 'echo 
huhu world | wc'
