I don't do analog cards, but...

-- /etc/rc snippet --
if [ -n "$MODOPTS" ]; then
   for i in $MODOPTS; do
     MOD=`echo $i | cut -d: -f1`
     OPT=`echo $i | cut -d: -f2`
     echo "options $MOD $OPT" >> /tmp/etc/modprobe.conf
   done
fi
-- /etc/rc snippet --

So, it would imply

MODOPTS="wctdm:debug=1"

would do what Mart wants.

This is also documented in /stat/etc/rc.conf

##If you define this variable, we will automatically generate  
modprobe.conf
##for you.  modprobe reads this file before loading any modules in the  
OS.
##Format is modulename:option
##As always, you can pass multiple options and modules with spaces.
#MODOPTS="wctdm:opermode=UK"
