How do other packages handle that (no conflict)? I believe it's quite safe to put this file to /etc/fonts/conf.d because this filename is unique and Suggests:fontconfig tells enough what it is. Although there are only few packages to put file on /etc/fonts/conf.d at this time (maybe fontconfig has already the definition for most fonts), ttf-arphic-ukai puts its configuration to /etc/fonts/conf.d/ttf-arphic-ukai. I recommend to use the name 64-*, because the primary of a font family is chosen from first prefer element. For example if you put file as 65-ttf-vlgothic.conf or ttf-vlgothic.conf, Kochi-Gothic will be chosen by prior 65-nonlatin.conf.
