This is equivalent to "update-rc.d apache2 remove" and will not persist. The workaround is to keep at least one stop link, then update-rc.d will not recreate the symlinks on package upgrades. In squeeze it is possible to run "update-rc.d disable" and "update-rc.d enable" to disable or enable a service.
