[ scratches head ... ] What's this have to do with VPATH?

I see the point that if EXTENSION is set, and a nondefault MODULEDIR is
selected, the "install" target puts the control file into the extension
subdirectory which hasn't been made by installdirs. But that seems not
connected to VPATH builds.
