That macro disables automated updates when configure.ac or a Makefile.am
changes. Normally those updates are wanted because users typically
forget running ./autogen.sh.
See also the GNU documentation why AM_MAINTAINER_MODE should not be used:

Those files can be built by doc/generate_manpages.sh.
The manpages are needed for the installation,
so add Makefile rules for them.
Git must ignore the generated manpages.

This is what was required to get 'make-dist' to work. I left autogen alone
since it works, albeit with an error message. My practice packages appear
to work fine.
