You could get the latest snapshot on:
ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/inetutils
or
ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/cvs/inetutils.tgz
(I recommand this one) the more recent developement snapshot.

For the developement snapshot you will need the auto{make,conf} tools
to generate the configure, Makefile files see autogen.sh and the README*
files.  So in a shell:
# gzip -dc inetutils.tgz |tar xvf -
# cd inetutils
# ./autogen.sh
# ./configure
# cd libinetutils
# make
# cd ../tftp
# make

I'm currently extremmely busy with other projects but please send
your bug reports to the list(not to me;) if you have any problems.

Note: The latest (developement) snapshot contains fixes, that you may want.
