Synopsis: inetd hangs on non-existent config files

Responsible-Changed-Why: 
I'll take this PR as inetd is my problem.

I think inetd is actually running and providing no services - I'd
expect that if you create its config file and HUP it, it should
continue happily. It isn't clear to me if this is sensible or not.

I think that the patch, as it stands, would cause inetd to exit if
HUPPed after its config file had been deleted, which is probably
bad. Maybe a patch that checks for the existance of the config file
at start-up?

	David.
