I'm the maintainer but I'd like to keep this public.  FWIW, we're
still using 1.3.2 with a lot of very intrusive changes.  That's
the reason I never tried to return the changes to the main line.

Anyway, did you ever took a look into the Cygwin version?
It contains especially the change to allow inetd to run as Windows
NT service and another important change is to get rid of the
handling of uid 0 as being the superuser.
