I see autopkgtest already does:
for default in default_releases:
script += 'printf "\nPackage: *\\nPin: release
a=%(default)s\\nPin-Priority: 990\\n" >>
/etc/apt/preferences.d/autopkgtest-%(release)s; ' % \
{'release': release, 'default': default}
if there are default releases passed to this function, which there are
only for -updates. But AIUI (jak?) this is effectively the same as
APT::Default-Release anyway, so I'm proposing that we always do this for
the default release instead of the apt.conf.d snippet.
