Actually the server program itself should have the same name in both
packages, so people can switch between the packages easily.

Hrm, the cleanest solution would be to send the manpages to the upstream
maintainer and have him edit the build scripts so that the correct
manpage gets installed.

Then do it by hand -- i.e. without debhelper. Give the file an arbitrary
name and copy it by hand (before the dh_installman call) to
debian/server-enhanced/usr/share/man/man5/server.conf.5
