For what its worth, for projects that do like to enable maintainer
mode, I prefer they also check in the Makefile.in's because of the
grief that can occur when git is missing them and configure is
ignoring that role.  Since wacom doesn't check them in, I also prefer
deleting this line.

Also, I think projects that distribute an autogen.sh scripts have
their roots in this setting as well.  Its primary feature is a short
cut to force Makefile regeneration when we've gone out of our way to
disable that automatice feature.  Its an option to either delete that
script now or remove the configure part.  Hopefully, people that muck
with configure.ac scripts already know you need to run autoreconf
after modifying it and the Makefile will now have working rules to
rerun configure after modifying Makefile.am.
