While on the topic of inetd and deviating from the other BSDs, I noticed 
when playing with pf that OpenBSD has the ability to bind services to 
specific interfaces in the inetd.conf file. Is there any interest in 
bringing this capability across to the FreeBSD inetd?

I noticed the OpenBSD PR database suggests this came from NetBSD:

http://cvs.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/query-pr-wrapper?numbers=175&full=yes

Though I haven't delved into this further. Is anyone else interested in 
seeing this imported? If no one else takes up the challenge I might have 
a look in a couple of weeks time, although at the moment I'm suffering 
from ENOTIME.

Cheers
