Bug#795269: TMPTIME not honored anymore

I tried to configure it in /etc/tmpfiles.d/tmp.conf but all files still get deleted
on reboot.
I have this line in the file:
D /tmp 1777 root root 30d
What can I do to prevent systemd from deleting all files in /tmp on reboot?
I also feel the severity of this bug is more than "normal" since it leads to data
loss. Some may consider it bad practice to keep files in /tmp, but many people do
that for some temporary files and configured TMPTIME according to their needs.
There should also be a warning in /etc/default/rcS explaining that setting TMPTIME is
useless (and maybe the other variables as well?).
