As you can see, the mplayer package in testing comes with an init 
script. Contents:

#!/bin/sh
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: mplayer-RTC-settings
# Required-Start: $local_fs $syslog
# Required-Stop:
# Default-Start:  2 3 4 5
# Default-Stop: 0 1 6
# Short-Description: sets access to RTC device (for MPlayer)
# Description: loads RTC module, creates and sets permission of /dev/rtc
### END INIT INFO

*cut*

It's harmless. You're too paranoid :)
