I'm not aware of a documented way to change this.

Nevertheless, it is probably easy to do: When you look at the generated
Makefile.in and search for the string 'summary for', you will see that
it gets the text that follows it from a Makefile variable. This Makefile
variable gets its default value from the configure file. But if you
set a value in Makefile.am, it will override the value from the configure
file - locally in that Makefile only.
