I have done that with the Debian packages this way:

/etc/dokuwiki/dokuwiki.php:
@include("conf/local.php");

/etc/dokuwiki/local.php:
<?

switch( $_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"] ) {
 case "/home/mh/.www/wiki.zugschlus.de":
    require_once("conf/wiki.zugschlus.de.php");
    return;
 case "/home/mh/.www/testwiki.zugschlus.de";
    require_once("conf/testwiki.zugschlus.de.php");
    return;
 case "/home/mh/.www/debs2005.zugschlus.de";
    require_once("conf/debs2005.zugschlus.de.php");
    return;
}

?>

/etc/dokuwiki/wiki.zugschlus.de.php (as an example):
$conf['basedir']     = '';
$conf['fsdir']       = '/home/mh/.www/data/wiki.zugschlus.de';
$conf['datadir']     = $conf['fsdir']. '/data';
$conf['title']       = 'wiki.zugschlus.de'; //what to show in the title
$conf['uploadtypes'] = '(txt|gif|jpe?g|png|zip|pdf|tar(\.gz)?|tgz)';


My installations are not in intensive use, but this approach seems to
work reasonably well.

Greetings
Marc
