Okay... this is very sophisticated. I have not used it (yet) but this
is not so simple.
I still thinking my sugestion (in other mail, and copied below) is a good way:

uses
 zip IN '/units/my/zip.pas' AS myzip;
 zip IN '/units/lib/zip/zip.pas' AS ziplib;

2 units, same name, different paths and different "aliases" to use in project.
