colon_infile seems wrong...

The rule in automake.in for generating colon_infile is (in 1.5, and it's
similar in 1.6.3):
...
my $colon_infile = '';
if ($local ne $input || @secondary_inputs)
{
$colon_infile = ':' . $input . '.in';
}
$colon_infile .= ':' . join (':', @secondary_inputs)
if @secondary_inputs;
This seemd clearly wrong - it changes the order of the inputs, forcing
$input.in to be the first file of the generated sequence.
Is the solution to pass an extra early argument to handle_configure that is
the actual template string?
