The xinetd packages is always replacing /etc/services so that Red Hat can
update the file. It would be nice if there was a /etc/services.d ;-)
However, since distcc has a registered port with IANA, I would guess that
in the not-so-distant future distcc would be part of Red Hat's list ?
Maybe adding a report on bugzilla would get the proper attention.
