You can install the File:Smartgen.vim in your vim environment and manually call:

set syntax=smartgen

to activate it. The sgsyntax script below will automatically find your vim base directory and also modify your filetypes.vim file. Unfortunately there is a special rule for configure.in in filetypes.vim so you might want to manually move the

au BufNewFile,BufRead *.in setf smartgen

definition up to where configure.in his handled or even remove that special case in favor of the smartGENERATOR case
