Log:
  inetd(8): Provide HTTP proxy example using netcat
  
  One of the fortunes that are included in freebsd-tips talks about how
  the superserver can be used to proxy connections with netcat, but there are
  no examples provided. This commit adds an example with comment explaining
  what it does.
