>Description:
	The inetd man page does not mention the requirement for a
	wait/nowait column in ONC entries.  The code does require
	this and the sample inetd.conf file includes it.

>How-To-Repeat:
	Code inspection.
	Create inetd.conf entry for ONC service without wait/nowait
	column and [re]start inetd.  This will create a syslog message like:
Jan  1 08:01:46 turion inetd[3795]: /etc/inetd.conf: bad wait/nowait for service rstatd
