  commit 25a422cc60 deprecated --inetd, which is still something we want.

Unlike all "usual" deprecated option warnings, we cannot print this at
option parsing time, because we need logging to be set up first - otherwise
the deprecation warning is sent via the socket (on stdin/stdout)
towards the connecting client, totally breaking this mode.

(Which is why we want to deprecate it: too special even for us)
