i dont know the exact mechanism that prevents the tools from upgrading
the file, but know the md5sum is stored in:
/var/lib/xfree86/XF86Config-4.md5sum
it contains the md5sum and the filename it could be possible that
adjusting the md5sum in the file is enough, but as i said i dont know
the exact mechanism debconf uses to read it or to prevent the
overwriting of the file.
if i find out anything i'll update you about the topic
ciao
