Bug#110596: upgrade to latest woody version stomped on my config

[Daniel Silverstone <dsilvers@salmon.pepperfish.org>]

Package: xinetd
Version: 1:2.3.0-1
Severity: critical

I was upgrading to 1:2.3.0-1 and all of a sudden it told me that
it was converting inetd.conf to xinetd.conf format, and that if I
didn't want it to in future, to use dpkg-reconfigure to tell it
not to.

Unfortunately this was too late to stop it converting a broken inetd.conf
into xinetd.conf format, losing all my carefully crafted secure xinetd.conf
contents since it didn't make a backup :(

This is /real bad/ (tm)
