Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.
Right after posting, I finally got atftpd to work.
The init.d script seems to be broken and bails because there's no root
directory configured even though there is one specified in
/etc/conf.d/atftpd. So I gave up on starting it via /etc/init.d.
When running it directly from the command line, I was missing the
"--daemon" option -- which has nothing to do with whether it runs as a
daemon or not (that's controlled by "--no-fork"). It controls whether
it expects stdin to be a UDP socket or it should create and bind a
socket.
Despite the reasonably clear help text description of --daemon, I just
couldn't convince myself to add the --daemon option when I didn't want
it to run as a daemon.

I would have sworn I had at least two different tftp servers installed
at the same time in the past...
