A post from nginx list:
append the configure argument you already mentioned ./configure --add-module=/opt/ModSecurity-nginx with the
--with-cc-opt='-g -O2 -fstack-protector-strong -Wformat -Werror=format-security -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2' --with-ld-opt=-Wl,-z,relro --prefix=/usr/share/nginx --conf-path=/etc/nginx/nginx.conf --http-log-path=/var/log/nginx/access.log --error-log-path=/var/log/nginx/error.log --lock-path=/var/lock/nginx.lock --pid-path=/run/nginx.pid --http-client-body-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/body --http-fastcgi-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/fastcgi --http-proxy-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/proxy --http-scgi-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/scgi --http-uwsgi-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/uwsgi --with-debug --with-pcre-jit --with-ipv6 --with-http_ssl_module --with-http_stub_status_module --with-http_realip_module --with-http_auth_request_module --with-http_addition_module --with-http_dav_module --with-http_geoip_module --with-http_gzip_static_module --with-http_image_filter_module --with-http_spdy_module --with-http_sub_module --with-http_xslt_module --with-mail --with-mail_ssl_module --add-module=/tmp/buildd/nginx-1.6.2/debian/modules/nginx-auth-pam --add-module=/tmp/buildd/nginx-1.6.2/debian/modules/nginx-dav-ext-module --add-module=/tmp/buildd/nginx-1.6.2/debian/modules/nginx-echo --add-module=/tmp/buildd/nginx-1.6.2/debian/modules/nginx-upstream-fair --add-module=/tmp/buildd/nginx-1.6.2/debian/modules/ngx_http_substitutions_filter_module

One problem I see here is that you need to place the modules added there in their exact path like for example /tmp/buildd/nginx-1.6.2/debian/modules/nginx-upstream-fair .Otherwise you will have to modify those path accordingly. you need to install build deps for nginx too
Also you might be able to use 1.8.0 stable version

I am not going to do it, I do not want to break everything .... Am I right ?
