Glad you like it :) If you see any way to manage that better, please do
tell. Just be sure to review the past 18 months of on-list discussion
about the topic before to go thinking extension vs search_path is easy
to solve, or even possible to solve.

Good, I'll have that in the next patch version, waiting for until your
review of the new one :)

What if $extension.control exists? Is it a byproduct of the .in file
from previous `make` run or a user file? What if we have both the .in
and the make variable because people are confused? Or both the make
variables and a .control and not .control.in? Etc...

Hell no, as you can bypass the .in mechanism and provide directly the
.control file.
