doesn't sound like much of an embedded system to me. One of the features
of busybox is that its small. One of the reasons its small is because it
doesn't include the most advanced, multiuser, featurefull, etc version
of utily xyz one can find. Busybox includes basically what you would
need if you were making an embedded system.

Embedding xinetd in busybox won't make xinetd small, just compile and
use xinetd if thats what you want to do.
