afaik, there are no UNIX make programs that would choose Makefile over
makefile (that's the standard behavior).  The choice of name was designed
to phase in the autoconfigure stuff, but when done, there's no reason to
keep the non-autoconf'd Makefile at all (so to appease people who find it
easier to find, that'd be the time too rename makefile.in to Makefile.in
