This bit of NEWS from 2.68 is probably relevant then:

** AC_INIT again allows URLs with '?' for its BUG-REPORT argument.
   Regression introduced in 2.66.

It doesn't mention '<' or '>', but those are also characters that fail 
AS_LITERAL_IF but should pass the new AS_LITERAL_HEREDOC_IF macro that 
is used in 2.68 (but not 2.67) for the BUG-REPORT argument.
