don't use multicolumn. It is never the right solution. You can use something along the lines of
\ea
\parbox[t]{5cm}{
\ea
}%
\parbox[t]{5cm}{
\ex
}
\z
\z
(from the top of my head). Don't quote me on the exact positioning of the \z's

I could do this with tabular, but this would break the labels.

Thanks! I think your solution does not work because of the nesting of \ea within brackets. I tryed the following:
\eal
\label{SE0}%
\parbox[t]{5cm}{%
\ex\label{rseone} Forward Slash Elimination:\\[.5\baselineskip]
\begin{prooftree}
\NoSem
\hypo{\LexEnt{\pt{\ptv{a}}}{\sem{ }}{\syncat{\textit{A}/\textit{B}}}}
\hypo{\LexEnt{\pt{\ptv{b}}}{\sem{ }}{\syncat{\textit{B}}}}
\infer2[\ensuremath{/}E]{\LexEnt{\pt{\ptv{a} \ensuremath{\circ}\xspace \ptv{b}}}{\sem{ }}{\syncat{\textit{A}}}}
\end{prooftree}
}
\parbox[t]{5cm}{
\ex\label{lseone} Backward Slash Elimination:\\[.5\baselineskip]
\begin{prooftree}
\NoSem
\hypo{\LexEnt{\pt{\ptv{b}}}{\sem{ }}{\syncat{\textit{B}}}}
\hypo{\LexEnt{\pt{\ptv{a}}}{\sem{ }}{\syncat{\textit{B}\ensuremath{\backslash}{}\textit{A}}}}
\infer2[\ensuremath{\backslash}E]{\LexEnt{\pt{\ptv{b} \ensuremath{\circ}\xspace \ptv{a}}}{\sem{ }}{\syncat{\textit{A}}}}
\end{prooftree}
}
\zl
While this does compile, the result is not as expected. The a. and b. come out somewhere below on the page:
\newcommand{\shortbox}[3][-.7]{
\parbox[t]{.4\textwidth}{
\vspace{#1\baselineskip} #2\strut~~ #3}%
}
\ea
\begin{xlist}
\shortbox{a.}{abc}\shortbox{b.}{def}
\end{xlist}
\z
\ea
\begin{xlist}
\shortbox{a.}{ghi}\shortbox{b.}{jkl}
\end{xlist}
\z
Yes, this is like having a table, isn't it? But the labels will not work for this. I cannot refer to (1a) and (1b) with the latex reference mechanism or can I?
It has less overhead than a table.
you can use (\ref{ex:mylabel}a)
you do not need the {xlist}
parts actually
\ea
\shortbox{a.}{abc}\shortbox{b.}{def}
\z
\ea
\shortbox{a.}{ghi}\shortbox{b.}{jkl}
\z
BTW the backward Slash in 29b \ I^n
has extra horizontal space after it as compared to both 28b and 29a
But we need some tabular environment if the content spans more than one line, since the content should not start below a. and b. but below the first line of the second argument to shortbox (ghi or jkl).
I did it this way now:
\newcommand{\twomulticolexamples}[2]{
\begin{tabular}[t]{@{}l@{~~}l@{\hspace{1em}}l@{~~}l@{}}
a. & \parbox[t]{.4\textwidth}{#1} & b. & \parbox[t]{.4\textwidth}{#2}\\
\end{tabular}
}
There was a version with multicols that worked: If multicols was used outside the exe environment. But for one example the examples were too big for multicols but OK for my table solution, so I used my table solution.
I could do this with tabular, but this would break the labels.
