could you please restate the argument for this? i still haven't heard a
decent reason for this sort of conf format perturbation. every small whack
like this makes freebsd weirder to administrate -- there is a value to
sharing the same inetd.conf format with lots of other platforms.

if people have their undies in a wad over this, can't they compile inetd
without LIBWRAP?
