Black magic it is, will remove in v7.

The goal of the 3 variables EXTENSION, EXTVERSION, EXTCOMMENT is to
prepare the control file with 3 lines formatted variable = 'value'. If
you specify CONTROL instead, that should be the file name you're
providing directly.

It then grew up into being a directive to produce the right file set for
spi, but the simplest thing would be to hand prepare the files there. If
you agree with that, that's what I'll do in v7.
