I see no advantage to this.  It'll mess up our git history to do so,
not to mention complicate back-patching.  If we were planning to adopt
additional tools from the autoconf suite then we might have to change
the file suffix, but I have heard no suggestions that we might want to
do that.  In particular, we really do not care what automake thinks.
