I wonder if it's possible to control clobbering in mydsl-install itself, without making it too beefy, slow and complicated. I went through the tar docs and didn't see anything that I thought would help much, but if there was an ownership/permissions check for each existing file it could theoretically allow extensions to be built simply by tarring a directory. This solution would only be useful imo if it did not add much processing to the install.
