Probably not in the way you're thinking.  IIRC pgxs.mk explicitly resets
VPATH, and I think it has to do that because any VPATH embedded in
Makefile.global would represent what was done at the time of building
the PG installation --- which has zip to do with where the PGXS-using
software is located.

It might work to explicitly set VPATH from the make command line:make USE_PGXS=1 VPATH=whatever
as this should override the assignments in the makefiles.
