Yes, inetd with -e makes the leak go away.  What is seen then
is that a socket is open while it's willing to accept another
telnet.  When the limit is hit that socket is closed, and not
re-opened until the bury stops and it gets to recover its N/minute
state.  But never more than one socket is open, no leaks.
