I have this fixed in a newer version of the xinetd which basically reflects the change in your patch. It should be addressed in next revision of the ebuild -r2. That should also address some other bugs as well. Hopefully will be in tree in a day or two, just have to find a dev to proxy it into tree for me.
Please see bug 385137 for an updated ebuild with patches to address this issue and some others. Hopefully will be committed to tree sometime soon :)
Fixed in last bump
