Or you could use +motdfile and +hostfile in either your startup arguments or
server.cfg.  Then it doesn't matter when the file is overwritten.

But I think there was a change in Left 4 Dead SRCDS where it doesn't
overwrite it.  I'm using the default host.txt and motd.txt and I can't
recall ever having to reset it after a Left 4 Dead update.  I remember
setting it last year on release, but never since then.  My custom changes
are still there.

Maybe it's just something else they'll add in later on.  Hardly on the list
of priorities right now.
