This issue seemed to have been resolved in MySQL 5.6. I have noticed this until MySQL 5.5; here is an example code:

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `provider_org_group` ;
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `provider_org_group` (
  `id` INT NOT NULL,
  `name` VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,
  `type` VARCHAR(100) NULL,
  `inserted` TIMESTAMP NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
  `insert_src_ver_id` INT NULL,
  `updated` TIMESTAMP NULL ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
  `update_src_ver_id` INT NULL,
  `version` INT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
  UNIQUE INDEX `id_UNIQUE` (`id` ASC),
  UNIQUE INDEX `name_UNIQUE` (`name` ASC))
ENGINE = InnoDB;

Running this on MySQL 5.5 gives:

ERROR 1293 (HY000): Incorrect table definition; there can be only one TIMESTAMP column with CURRENT_TIMESTAMP in DEFAULT or ON UPDATE clause

Running this on MySQL 5.6
