If you install xinetd, it will instert a line in your /etc/init.d/netbase:

if [ -s /etc/rc2.d/S20xinetd ] ; then
   exit 0    

So this file won't be exectuted, but /etc/init.d/xinetd will.

I believe you still have this line in the file.

BTW: the reason for xinetd not working as you expected is most likely, that
/etc/init.d/xinetd looks for rpc.portmap, which has been renamed to portmap
recently.
