It's probably the ppp scripts or the dhcp client doing the rewriting. Unfortunately, I haven't had a ppp connection in so long, I forget how to fix it :-P If you look at the scripts invoked by pppd, you'll probably find the one that writes it (sorry I can't be more specific). Instead of editing it, though, see if it uses the ifup/ifdown interface and just add a script to /etc/network/if-up.d to add the line that you want.
