>Description:
Every one in a while, inetd will stop forking new daemons, but instead,
it's children will die, and the following message is displayed:

inetd in realloc(): warning: junk pointer, too low to make sense.
inetd in free(): warning: junk pointer, too low to make sense.
The output of ktrace looks like this:

65089 inetd    RET   select 1
65089 inetd    CALL  accept(0x6,0,0)
65089 inetd    RET   accept 11/0xb
65089 inetd    CALL  sigprocmask(0x1,0x82001)
65089 inetd    RET   sigprocmask 0
65089 inetd    CALL  fork
65089 inetd    RET   fork 69581/0x10fcd
65089 inetd    CALL  sigprocmask(0x3,0)
65089 inetd    RET   sigprocmask 532481/0x82001
65089 inetd    CALL  close(0xb)69581 inetd    RET   fork 0
69581 inetd    CALL  sigprocmask(0x3,0)
69581 inetd    RET   sigprocmask 532481/0x82001

 This should be fixed with version 1.45 of inetd.c as of Dec 28.

As Guy pointed out (and I haven't heard any news to the contrary from the 
originator) this should already be fixed.
