I am afraid that

$ git whatchanged -s -S'FIXME' daemon.c

tells me otherwise.  Whatever we do in handle() is too late to matter.

    [PATCH] git-daemon --inetd
    
    git-daemon using inetd. does not work properly. inetd routes stderr onto the
    network line just like stdout, which was apparently not expected to be so.
    
    As the result of this, the stream is closed by the receiver, because some
    "Packing %d objects\n" originating from pack_objects is first reported over
    the line instead of the expected pack_header, and so the SIGNATURE test
    fails.  Here is a workaround.
