I think you know more about autoconf than me, I suggested the renaming because configure.ac seems to be the prefered filename: | Previous versions of Autoconf promoted the name `configure.in', | which is somewhat ambiguous (the tool needed to produce this | file is not described by its extension), and introduces a slight | confusion with `config.h.in' and so on (for which `.in' means | "to be processed by `configure'").
