    Sorry, I have no specific experience installing xinetd on Irix 6.5.

    As with any problem running configure: check the config.log file
    configure produces and see what went wrong exactly. Obviously
    compiler/preprocessor warnings about missing include files and such
    are most interesting here.

    Don't ever edit installed system files unless absolutely necessary.

    Please first check config.log for what went wrong exactly and if it
    doesn't make sense to you post the appropriate lines here. Probably
    you will just need to add an option like
    CPPFLAGS="-I/some/place/not/searched/for/includes/by/default"
