I also noticed that there is a file named src/Makeconf.in, which
apparently is used to generate another file named src/Makeconf. What are
these two files used for, and when are they supposed to be used?

Makeconf.in is read in by configure, and it replaces the parameters it has discovered into Makeconf.

Makeconf is used, e.g., to pass on the list of missing functions in GSL to the scripts that generate the source code.

Ok, thank you Susi.

My knowledge about autotools is limited, but this Makeconf.in / Makeconf / Makefile setup seemed a little unusual, so I changed it.

Now you just have a Makefile.in, that configure uses to create Makefile. Please test it and see if there is any problem with what I have done.
