After I saw that Modules >4.7 has module-hide and module-forbid, I went 
this way now (after an update of the modules package):

------------ snip ------------
#%Module

set archdir /net/software/$env(ARCH)

set softdir /net/software
set modprefix $softdir/modules/modulefiles

foreach modfile [glob $modprefix/*/*.*] {
     regsub ***=/net/software/modules/modulefiles/ $modfile "" mod
     if {![file exists $archdir/$mod] && ![file exists $softdir/$mod]} {
         module-hide --soft $mod
         module-forbid $mod
     }
}
------------ snap ------------

Kind regards,
