I am puzzled. Xinetd is listed on the FSF directory page (http:// 
directory.fsf.org/network/servers/xinetd.html) with explicit  
information that the license is a "3-clause-BSD-style license" which  
is said to be compatible with GPL. The page doesn't mention the  
patches, though. However, software listed as Free Software on FSF's  
webpages ought to be OK for Ubuntu, don't you think?
