This is because inetd -c essentially sends a SIGHUP to the current inetd 
process, and the current inetd is likely running as root so it can bind to 
privileged ports.  You can't send signals to processes you don't own unless 
you're root, so this fails as bin.

I'm pretty sure you could avoid this specific mess by just using something like


processes:
  inetd_conf_was_updated::
    "inetd" signals => { "hup" };
