Correct, and this is documented:

https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf.html#Initializing-configure

AC_PACKAGE_URL, PACKAGE_URL
    Exactly url, if one was provided. If url was empty, but package 
begins with ‘GNU ’, then this defaults to 
‘http://www.gnu.org/software/tarname/’;, otherwise, no URL is assumed.
