Assuming you're talking about binfmt-misc, create a file in
/etc/init.d called something like local-binfmt.sh, and link to it by
# ln -s ../init.d/local-binfmt.sh /etc/rcS.d/S90local-binfmt.sh
The file would contain something like:
-----
if [ -e /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc/register ]; then
echo ':rexx:M::/*::/usr/bin/regina:' > /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc/register
fi

You could file a Priority: wishlist bug on the package you think
should have this functionality, suggesting they do something like I
put above.
Ultimately, there should probably be another package that manages this
and provides an `update-binfmt' program.
