Um, sorry, they were designed to be run from inetd. That you have
to add '-D' to 'force' them to run in standalone mode suggests that
in standalone mode it is not the default setup.
However, it is a matter of choice. If you want tcp wrappers, or something,
standalone is not the best choice. If you need performance, like for
instance with a web server, the obvious choice is standalone.
