It looks to me like you have discovered a bug[0] rather than some sort
of conspiracy against well maintained module packages. I recommend
filing it in the BTS as such.

[0] The lines in debian/rules.real which write VERSION and PATCHLEVEL

in the 2.6 days, I think it most likely that they were simply forgotten
about rather than deliberately trying to break out of tree modules.
