The latter is the approach we take.
ml EasyBuild # load stock EB modules
then
ml EasyBuild-ada # to build on/for Ivy Bridge nodes
or
ml EasyBuild-ada-Westmere # to build on/for Westmere nodes
or
ml EasyBuild-curie # to build on P7 nodes (this has its own P7 compile
of EB)
with each having its own EASYBUILD_* settings (primarily _INSTALLDIR,
_REPOSITORYPATH and ROBOTPATH).

We are rolling out a central /etc/profile.d/... file that exports the
relevant EASYBUILD_ variables. Out method of choice is currently
puppet but we are thinking about taking the intermediate of building a
SiteEB module that does this (so "ml load SiteEB" instead of "ml load
EasyBuild").
That way we decouple the upstream installation from our own site settings

Why not keep /etc/easybuild.d/ in sync on all systems?
