I set up a similar environment and it doesn't fail for me as you describe.
Perhaps the difference is in our .config files. Please send me yours.

Also, it will be interesting to see the result of

strace -f -o strace.log -p <inet'd pid>

Start inetd first, then strace, then telnet into the box, run "sleep 10"
and Ctrl-C it - telnetd will die as you describe (correct behavior
is "only sleep dies, telnetd does not"). Then stop (Ctrl-C) strace
and post the resulting strace.log
