I was wondering, how exactly does it work when another publisher produces a full reproduction like this? Does Yale give their permission for part of the profit? Or is it considered fair use?

Just guessing, but it would be tough to assume any rights exist on the VM.
Death of 'author/s' + 75 years?
Fair use.
If you're into that sort of thing, you could have Voynich T-shirts for sale on the internet by Friday.
And someone will undoubtedly pay one comma for a "reproduction" because they can. Those of you that
create Voynich related materials like typefaces, glyphs, characters, etc. should seriously consider making
sure you have some form of protection for your work so it doesn't get bastardized...
All those typefaces, etc. can be protected if they are re-generated using new technology. Copyrights exist on your writings.
