 * WARNING: Future backward-incompatibilities!
 
+  - Starting from either the next minor version (1.12.2) or the next major
+    version (1.13), Automake will start warning if 'configure.in' is used
+    instead of 'configure.ac' as the Autoconf input.  Future versions of
+    Automake will drop support for 'configure.in' altogether.
+
   - Autoconf 2.65 or later will be required by the next major Automake
     version (1.13).  Until now, Automake has required Autoconf version
     2.62 or later.
