It is not. There's some magic for simple cases so that contrib mostly
"works" with no editing, but of course, that's only mostly.
The version Itakagi-San worked with had not a single change to the
contrib sources, I've only begun to change things there (in v6) with the
spi case, that now produces 5 extensions control files out of a single
Makefile, thanks to this single new line:
CONTROL = $(addsuffix .control, $(MODULES))
