@chaitrex, IMO the workaround proposed by @ddstreet in #2 is the simplest
solution, overriding default configuration by placing a configuration in /etc
and this also follows the general concept of how systems should be configured.
The big miss here is not having the behavior documented in modprobe.d(5).
Since the file in /lib/modprobe.d can be overridden by placing an identically
named file in /etc i don't think that making the file shipped in
/lib/modprobe.d is necessary or desired.
Also we would like to go in the direction of not shipping files in /etc by
default, so moving the file to /etc would be a step back.
As a side note in similar situation the system administrator can use
dpkg-divert to keep a file from being overwritten by a package upgrade.
