At least for patching "C" code, the policy is to put everything into one
source, and decide which code to actually use with cpp magic (#define,
...).

Knowing that you probably don't have sources for acroread, I guess that
you want to patch an /bin/(c?)sh install-script here, which is more
interresting. Solutions I can see here:
 - use 'uname -sr' to decide what to do
 - "." or sh in appropriate files provided in acroread/files

Not knowing of the exact problem, i can't guess more solutions right now.
