Follow-up Comment #4, bug #16286 (project make):

Okay, yes, you're right that VPATH isn't intended to do what I thought it
would be useful for. That's not a bug, it's a feature. (sorry, couldn't
resist)
Anyway, what you say about dismisisng the VPATH prefix isn't exactly true. In
my project, when doing a complete build after a make clean (all .o deleted), I
ended up with some of the .o with and some without vpath prefix in the linking
stage. According to your explanations there should have been none with prefix
(while I erroneously expected all with).

Anywa, a change in the (expected) behaviour would increase the usefulness. So
count this as a feature request ;)
