I appologize that I made a mistake here.  And I don't smoke!

I did not set up my local config like this.  And the change in the
config happened on two machines the day apache2 got updated.  And I
found that under bug #304786:

'----
| Apache configuration has been modified to include only files in conf.d that
| end in .conf.
`----

So why should I think that change has not been made by the apache2
packages?

Now I have investigated that issue and found out that this change in
the apache2 config has been made by the phpmyadmin package.  There a
bug has already been filed under #307275.

I agree.
