Summary

The user can trivially see the list of examples in /etc/inetd.conf
by looking at the file, so there's no need to include an entire
paragraph in the manual enumerating the examples which are provided.

FWIW, I think removing these is fair game. It's just one more list to get stale, and it doesn't help me evaluate the implementation at all if I'm just browsing the manpage via the web interface or something like that.

I would argue for keeping this list, though.

Actually, I guess I wouldn't- it's a duplicate of the same list from DESCRIPTION. I wouldn't mind making that list an actual list, though, rather than inline with a bunch of other text.
