I tend to remember you are the upstream for xfce4-hdaps?

Then absolutely. You should convert the plug-in to the new module 
format, check for example here:

http://git.xfce.org/panel-plugins/xfce4-mpc-plugin/commit/?id=11e6ebca679265ff5fb4e2cda585d8a26f3c99c1

Then check the paths used by actual plugins shipped with the 
xfce-base/xfce4-panel. For example:

$libdir/xfce4/panel/plugins/libhdaps.so
$datadir/xfce4/panel/plugins/hdaps.desktop

So it's just as you guessed, the --libdir= thing is just a workaround we 
can apply for unported plugins...
