I beleive the easiest thing would be compile time
options. In my environment I would compile XORP on
one machine and then distribute it to all my
routers. By setting the appropriate
compile-options I can affect the behaviour of
XORP and being compile-time options I'm sure they
won't change thus reducing number of things that
can go wrong on my production machines.

Introducing a secondary configuration file
increases the complexity quite a lot imho.
