The '--listen' and '--user' lines are in the "alternate" ('|') branch
of '--inetd' so, as Lucas points out, this indentation appears
intentional, thus seems okay as-is.

As you mention, there are plenty of existing offenders already in this

No message in this source file use _(...) yet so probably not worth a
re-roll, but definitely something for a follow-up patch (by someone).
