If you go look at the archives, you will find the suggested way is to binary upgrade. Your problem was only fixed in 4.4-stable and then only recently. I really think you should try 4.2-r and then 4.4-r. BTW, there are massive security holes until you get to 4.4. So, turn off everything in inetd.conf.
