We could add that, but we couldn't rely on it.
Well, maybe we could, since really we only suppor

If you need to have the files created in their VPATH-found location
instead of in the local directly, use the GPATH variable to specify
which directories contain those types of files.
See the GNU make manual, and let me know.
I don't think this is the right behavior to make the default, though:

om> Subject: Misleading RCS behaviour
I have discovered some misleading behaviour in GNU Make. It pertains
to the combination of RCS files and VPATH. Here is a Makefile that I
have written to demonstrate the problem. Suppose this is a Makefile
generated by `configure' -- ie. it resides in the "build tree" (see
diagram below).
