There is "non-local exits", but it is supposed to be used in relation to
errors and wouldn't maybe feel right in this case.
What about having your .emacs basically empty with only a conditional
load of a .emacs-work.el or .emacs-gnu.el file based on the version of
Emacs reading the .emacs file?
Best regards
