Note that as of sysvinit version 2.85-1 this file is no longer used.
Here is the changelog.Debian entry:

  * Get rid of /etc/ioctl.save, it's a legacy thing from Unices with
    a serial console and no way to set reset the linespeed at boot.
    With Linux we have console=tty0,speed as bootparameter anyway.
