Here's the quote from section 3.1 of the autoconf manual:
Previous versions of Autoconf promoted the name `configure.in', which is somewhat ambiguous (the tool needed to process 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"). Using `configure.ac' is now preferred.
The same rationale for not using .xml for SVG files!
