I would consider that a bug in MI::Cat. It should either have its own list or
make use of MM->libscan($path). You should report that to MI::Cat.
Module::Install uses MakeMaker but it is its own thing that MakeMaker has no
control over.

I would also consider that a bug or at least a design flaw in MI::Cat.
Makefile.PL should not be building things or copying stuff into blib.
Pruning them in the Makefile.PL would seem to be the simplest work around.

File::ShareDir or its Module::Install component may have the same issue as
MI::Cat. I would discuss that with them.

The simplest work around for that is to write a postamble method that
introduces your own additions to the pure_all target which is what runs with
"make" and has pm_to_blib as a dependency.
sub postamble {
return <<'MAKE';
pure_all ::
...prune here...
MAKE
}
