Me too. I'd like to build rpc-aware xinetd with sunrpc package.
Errr....what do you mean?

1) xinetd can be built so that it (somehow) USES rpc calls, and you want to do that, or

2) you're simply proposing to include startup scripts for sunrpc (e.g. portmapper) in the xinetd package (e.g. in /etc/xinetd.d/)

If 1), then fine by me. If 2), ... that's a policy discussion:

where should daemon startup scripts "live"?
a) As part of xinetd.d/ in the xinetd package,
b) in /etc/rc.d/init.d/ as part of the initscripts package
c) or in [/etc/rc.d/init.d|/etc/xinetd.d/] as part of whatever package the daemon itself is in?

IMO, (c) is the right answer. That is, /etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd should be part of the sshd package, not initscripts. Ditto /etc/rc.d/init.d/portmap in sunrpc package.
