When you create a vocabulary (administer->categories->add vocabulary) you want to make the Hierarchy field be Multiple. Then you need to add terms to your vocabulary. When you make the terms, you can set the parent. If you select more than one parent, the term has multiple parents.

That's actually a special feature of the forums and you do it by making forum containers. It isn't a feature that is available for the normal taxonomy usage, unfortunately. I think it would be a good feature, so maybe you should file a feature request. I know that a possible taxonomy rewrite is in the works.
