You can't be sure that the common file is present on the system when config runs (since that may be before the package is unpacked). You can, however, maintain the common part as a separate file in your source package and inline it in both files of the generated binary. A very ugly implementation of this is in the fusionforge source package, using an ad-hoc tool I called DSF-Helper (short for "Debian SourceForge helper" -- that's how old it is).
