There are two problems: one with uClibc and one with busybox.

uClibc's signal.h should not point folks to __xpg_sigpause()
without supplying an implementation of __xpg_sigpause().  This is
a bug in uClibc which clearly needs fixing.

The other problem is with busybox: busybox should be using the
POSIX signal handling interfaces, not the obsolete BSD stuff.
Thus inetd (and really all other busybox applets now using BSD
signal handling interfaces) should be converted to use
sigaction(), sigsuspend(), and friends.
