I think it is what users of the --program-prefix|suffix|transform configure options will probably expect to happen. Ie if someone wants "emacs" installed as "emacs27", I think they want "emacs27-module.h" as well. > Lastly, we name the file explicitly in the documentation. The documentation also names eg the "emacs" and "emacslient" executables, which are rather more fundamental. The documentation does not account for the --program-transform etc options anywhere, and I don't think it should. It's a specialized feature, and people who use it should be able to deal with the consequences.
