Good news is current unison builds just fine with the existing SPEC with
trivial updates.
Can somebody recommend an existing package to use as an example that
maintains multiple versions of a source tree to build multiple versions
of the main binary?
Don't do that. It's not a good path to take. When you have multiple
binary
rpms built from a single source rpm, anytime there's a change to any of the
included sources all of the binary rpms end up being updated. This is not
desirable for end users. Yes, maintaining separate source and binary
packages is more work for the packager but it is nicer for the end user.
