Yes, have it all empty but for an `if' clause
to go to either file A or file B depending
on version.

Then put all other configuration/extensions in
neat files (a, b, c ... n)

In A, put A-specific stuff _only_ and then load
(a ... n) explicitly at your discretion.

In B, do the same, only have the B-specific
stuff there, as you understand of course.

Simple in theory and simple to setup in
practice! To deal with it in the long run when
you do changes to (a ... n) - perhaps not so
simple neither in theory nor practice... :(
