Well, they probably need something like this
foo.mod FOO.mod: foo.$(OBJEXT)
@if test -f $@; then :; else \
rm -f data.$(OBJEXT); \
$(MAKE) $(AM_MAKEFLAGS) data.c; \
fi
to ensure that module get updated or recreated when needed.

I hope that does not mean many *.mod file can be produced by a
single compilation.

You can. It even looks more sensible. But actually it's
superfluous: EXTRA_* is really useful when there are extra files
to distribute or extra compile rule to generate.
