I think it's an interesting problem, indeed. I've been blessed enough to only have a few machines (<10) under my current care, and I've used the github variant mentioned above on all of them.
How many plugins are you using? Maybe you could make a vimrc.portable that contains the basic stuff that you need, but isn't the complete setup. I know I don't need all the 40-ish plugins I have in my full setup when I'm just doing sysadmin stuff.
