So I have one single body which then loads via (load custom-file) the customisations for different GNU Emacs versions. They have names à la ~/.emacs-Abrichtung-<emacs version>.el – but it could be OS specific as well.

Thanks, that would be one possible solution, but as I said in the
initial post, I don't want to have redundancy (i.e. several custom
files), because I want to be able to tweak some customization in one
machine/OS and have the resulting customization automatically applied
to the other machine/OS.
