Hello,

I wanted to let everyone know that the cvs version of xinetd is
fixed and now runs correctly. 

I also added the ipv4 mapped ipv6 address conversion that was
discussed back in August. I was able to test the patch to make
sure it works. The testing indicated that xinetd-2.3.12 (and
prior) was definitely broken when ipv4 machines accessed an ipv6
service that was in the ipv4 address block (::ffff). Basically,
the address would never compare. For no_access, this means anyone
could connect and for only_from this means no one could connect.

The only open issue from the discussion back in August was
checking it for portability. Please let me know if anyone has
problems building the current cvs copy of xinetd.

Have fun...

-Steve Grubb
