dh_installman trusts a man page's .TH line to define an appropriate
extension, such as .1x or .3perl; unfortunately this means that the
file present in the tarball as osd_clock.1 gets installed as

        /usr/share/man/man1/osd_clock.1osd_clock.gz

...which doesn't stop it working, but is slightly untidy, so here's
a trivial patch turning it into

        /usr/share/man/man1/osd_clock.1x.gz

By the way, lintian also bitches about

        zero-byte-file-in-doc-directory usr/share/doc/osdclock/NEWS.gz

(so take that empty NEWS file out of debian/docs) and

        debian-changelog-file-uses-obsolete-national-encoding at line 24

(so Stephan Windmüller needs his name utf8ified).
