This is OK, the names after /etc/dnsmasq.d are file suffices which
should be ignored when scanning the directory. dpkg can create backup
files there with these suffices under some circumstances and it would be
bad if dnsmasq read them as configuration.

Read all the files in the given directory as configuration
files. If extension(s) are given, any files which end in those
extensions are skipped. Any files whose names end in ~ or start
with . or start and end with # are always skipped.
