request to upload update-inetd 4.38+nmu1+squeeze1

[Serafeim Zanikolas <sez@debian.org>]

Dear members of the stable release team,

I'd like to upload update-inetd 4.38+nmu1+squeeze1 to fix #638180 (that's
severity: important).

update-inetd parses successfully the /proc/pid/stat file of inetd only when
the latter comes from the default "Provides: inet-superserver" package (ie.
openbsd-inetd) but fails to do so for inetutils-inetd and rlinetd.

Here's the patch below for squeeze; the fix has already been uploaded to
unstable in version 4.40.

cheers,
sez
