There is one copied in several locations:
zless \
/usr/share/doc/apache{,-ssl,-perl,-dbg,-utils,-common}/README.Debian.gz\

Whoops, I missed that. I only looked at README.mod_bandwidth. Maybe you 
should remove that file, it only causes confusion. But from the 
README.Debian.gz and the mail threads it refers to it doesn't actually 
become clear why the 777 permissions are needed...

sorry for the noise
