Thanks for the patch. However, again you didn't really care about
finding a more minimal fix for 2025.02.x. I tried to find one, and
couldn't identify it, so I ended up applying your patch, adding a note
about this.

However, right after applying your patch, I found:

  Subject: [Buildroot] [PATCH 1/1] package/xinetd: fix build w/ gcc-14

from Dario, which is precisely the minimal fix that would have been
great for 2025.02.x.

Anyway, your patch is applied to master. But please, please, please.
Every single time you send a patch fixing something, please, please,
please think about the LTS branch. Thanks a lot for your support!

Best regards,

Thomas Petazzoni
