What happened here is that you already had an ntpd instance running and 
started a second one, so the second one complained that some of the 
ports are already in use.  Since the first one was started without a 
PID file, the second one can't really detect that situation cleanly.  
The messages in the syslog might look a bit weird, but that's already 
covered in bug #239318.  The solution for this particular situation is 
to kill the first ntpd daemon (running as root) and restart the init 
script.
