You're right that documentation for using autoconf for non-C projects
is rather inadequate.  This is what I came up with:

,----[ Makefile.am ]
| EXTRA_DIST = imaxima.el
| lisp_LISP = imaxima.el
| ELCFILES = imaxima.elc
| info_TEXINFOS = imaxima.texi
`----

,----[ configure.in ]
| AC_INIT(imaxima.el)
| AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(imaxima,0.9)
| AC_PROG_INSTALL
| AM_PATH_LISPDIR
| AC_OUTPUT(Makefile)
`----
