I used to see BOOTP and TFTP get hosed under INETD on 5.5 at cccd.edu, and I
always did :ABORTJOB because when you're hosed, it's always best to give up and
start over.

Regarding -k, I don't know if inetd signals any living children before
terminating, so -k may be functionally equivalent to :ABORTJOB as far as any
inetd children are concerned.  Somebody would have to test this, or I need to
learn where the inetd source lives (networking source lives in different
accounts than regular MPE source) and check the code in order to answer this
accurately.
