xinetd diversions and questions



A while back I started maintaining xinetd for Boris, as his internet
connection isn't the best right now.  I have given some thought on how to
handle the entire /etc/init.d/{netbase,xinetd} issue.

The best way, I think, instead of mucking with netbase, is to use a diversion
on /usr/sbin/inetd.  This way, if portmap ever changes names again, there
should be any problems.  Eventually, I will write a update-inetd that will
know about xinetd, and divert that also.

If no one tells me that this is wrong, then I will be u/l a new version that 
fixes #19125(mucking with /etc/init.d/netbase), and #12021, #12047, #14159,
#17247, & #18691(the renaming of ipc.portmap to portmap).  This diversion fix
will also solve #12471, #12573 as pleasant side effects.
