I've done the "one line" fix, which is indeed a two-line fix in 
lrp.conf and multicron.

I prefer this approach for two reasons:

lrp.conf is part of lrcfg, whereas multicron is hidden to average 
user.

I may choose /var/logs as clean - up dir instead of /var/log.
In my case /var/logs is filled by squid, /var/log shouldn't be a 
problem, once i use a special syslog server instead syslogging on the 
router - which is btw a better and useful approach, if you think 
about hackers running against your firewall/router and after a 
reboot/crash no logs are available for investigation... or deleted by 
checkfreespace()...

Good ideas; unfortunately xinetd seems to be tree times bigger than 
inetd and tcpd.
