Pattern *.in should not be used to detect an Autoconf template file,
since it is a naming convention for any kind of template file that is used to
generate another file sometime during the configure/build process.
For example: *.pc.in, *.h.in, Makefile.in.

Instead, we should use exact filename configure.ac or configure.in.
See the Autoconf manual for details.
