It is possible to do that at the build/configure time. See configure --help. You'll have to build as many packages as you have customers. I don't think there's a way around that. AFAIK, nobody tried this so far, so you may run into issues with duplicate files.

Are there some IPC mechanisms used (shared > memory, ...) that could be messed up by running multiple instances? I think you should be OK.
