Tim Edwards, there's another way to work-around this that might be
easier. I should've added a comment on it.
For the command-line client ONLY: http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/unison
For both graphical and command-line client:

I was trying to sync between computers running Ubuntu 15.10 and a 16.04. I
found it was enough to simply copy /usr/bin/unison-gtk to any random directory
(eg. ~/Downloads) and run it from there:
chmod 750 unison-gtk
./unison-gtk
A bit ugly, but should allow me to sync between my remaining 14.04
*I meant copy the /usr/bin/unison-gtk from the 16.04 machine to the
15.10 one

Title:
Merge latest version (2.48.3-1) with Debian

Would someone with the appropriate permissions mark this as affecting
Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, too? The original bug report remarked on trying to
use newer Unison clients with older Ubuntu servers, and in my case, I
have the reverse issue - old clients, new server.
For ease of transition as users
Having read through the Debian notes it appears unlikely that 2.40 will
ever compile and work against the newer OCaml library in 16.04 LTS.
However, 2.48 does fine. There was some question about whether this
would work in 14.04 LTS. I have carried out a test using a 14.04 LTS
server and a 16.04
I can now sync using ssh between two machines running 16.04
Thank you.

Merging/backporting Unison 2.48 to Ubuntu 16.04/14.04 might be required
to avoid the issue where newer builds of Unison 2.40 segfault due to a
change in the OCaml library (version 4.01.0 -> 4.02.3).
