I've reproduced this bug. If you install ffmpeg on a squeeze system, and 
then upgrade to wheezy, you end up with obsolete /etc/ffserver.conf.

I thinks this is because normally mv_conffile does anything only on 
upgrades. If you never had libav-tools (<< 6:0.8.1-7) installed, the 
conffile won't be renamed.

Andreas Beckmann suggested how to trick mv_conffile to also trigger on 
installs: http://lists.debian.org/52654FB8.1080209@debian.org

I haven't tested if this hack works, though.
