I ran into similar issues just now when I tried to install it, to see  
if I can replicate your problem.

After some fiddling, IPv4 tftp transfers seems to be working fine now  
with the configuration below.

Can you try this?

--
[root at tsogang /usr/local/etc]# less xinetd.conf
defaults
{
         instances   = 25
         log_type    = FILE /var/log/servicelog
         log_on_success = HOST PID
         log_on_failure = HOST
         per_source  = 5
}

service tftp
{
         flags       = NAMEINARGS
         socket_type = dgram
         protocol    = udp
         wait        = yes
         user        = root
         server      = /usr/libexec/tftpd
         server_args = tftpd -l -s /tftpboot
}
