That's easy to solve. I'd just symlink to another name for
that port/address. For example, proftpd is also symlinked
to proftpd.in. You can just create another symlink. Its
hackish, but less so than maintaining your own patch
against xinetd. It is also portable to inetd should you
even need to go that direction.

Yesterday you said you recommend NOLIBWRAP for a flag and
then call tcpd so people have a consistent setup. In that
scenario, the patch to xinetd doesn't even come into play
since NOLIBWRAP is given.

But back to your original post for this thread. Why don't
you send Rob the patch so the portability enhancements can
start to be integrated? I think we're ready for those
changes. :)
