I guess you edit /scripts/cpbackups
Several problems with that though:
1. Everytime you upgrade cPanel you'll have to make the change again
2. You won't be able to perform a restore using WHM, you'll have to do restores manually from the root shell
3. Your backups will be immense in size because nearly all the files will likely be text which gzip compresses greatly

As dgbaker points out,
chattr +i is a very dangerous command and should never be used lightly. If you do that on any cPanel specific file you could easily open yourself up to exploits and bugs in the future that would have been fixed after an upgrade had you left well alone. It's much better to modify the file and keep a check on it after upgrades and then apply a diff file to patch it again.

There is a script which can monitor the file and help when it gets changed. You get the script by squirrel over on our forum in the HowTo area.
