The md5sum was hardcoded for a reason :).. See:

Pass the md5sum to rm_conffile, because dpkg looses track of it when
dbus-1-util is purged or upgraded
We could potentially remove this though. As the move was made before etch, so
we don't have to support it anymore strictly.. But i don't see any real reason
to remove it or to try to fix it while it's not broken :)
