Well, since this part of the Autoconf manual does not deal with any Automake functionality, Makefile.am would be out of place in the diagram which may be found on <http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/html_node/Making-configure-Scripts.html>. So, in packages using Autoconf but not Automake, Makefile.in files are typically hand-written, thus both authored by the package developer, as well as files used at configure time. I think that is what the left resp. right columns in that diagram are supposed to show. I agree that the diagram is confusing that way, though; not sure what would be a good way to fix that.
